I was recently hired for a limited-term job at a web development company in Milwaukee, WI. It is mainly editing pages for a project with a tight deadline, but my foot is in the door of the web development field! The employer said I may be doing some work in HTML and CSS, and the majority of the work will be template-based on HubSpot.com and working with Photoshop.
This is just what I was looking for. I have been in a bit of a bind on FCC and felt as though I needed some impetus to keep moving forward in web development. I have my own website built, I have taken other courses that interest me through the Linux Foundation, Udacity, Udemy, and edX. I wanted to start getting paid is what I’m trying to say, even if it was just a little bit. It seemed like I was at that point. I am reminded of one of my favorite Jim Carrey quotes
“Life doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you!”
This will be only a week or two week long assignment, but I am hopeful and excited to see where it leads! I am always better off with some experience than no experience.
Also, I tried negotiating but I almost lost the job doing so. I think I over-asked when there was already a fair deal on the table. My skills are not jr. web developer yet though, so that is just my experience.
Thanks FCC for all the help!
