First of all I hope you do get a job out of the leads here, you indeed sound like a normal real person.
Niggler below did a good job of specifying some of my concerns of why I am skeptical, but I hope the biggest point I got across is that in my opinion HN isn't the place for this. It feels like you are in the middle of a party and you stood up and yelled "I need a job" - you might be serious and smart, but I'll still feel skeptical about you because you can't fit your message to the audience.
The thing is - the audience here mostly did offer advice and leads, so I might not really know what it wants, so I'm just speaking for me :)
