How to Get a Job as a Front End Web Developer: The Complete Step-by-Step Guide

*** If you're interested in becoming a front end web developer, this course IS for you! ***

This course is the result of a web development job study I did and I ended up getting 12 interviews in 12 weeks. Yes, I'm serious. Of those 12, most of them offered me a job and in the end I was able to pick which company I wanted to work for. 

The goal was to learn what skills companies are actually looking for, and I found those... and much much more. I found a formula for getting interviews quickly. 

I even had The City (that I live in) interview me. Twice! 

This course goes over everything I did, in a simple step-by-step guide. You'll learn:

• How to find what skills are ACTUALLY in demand in your city
• How to filter the noise and bad advice in Facebook groups
• The REAL truth about React and Bootstrap
• The REAL skills you need to get a job as a front end web developer
• If you REALLY need a GitHub account and a portfolio website
• How to NOT get stuck on small things (hint: stop being a perfectionist, it's holding you back)
• How to find companies that are hiring in your city
• Why remote jobs are NOT as awesome as people think
• How to apply for your first job

• How to manage your nervousness in interviews
• How to get TONNES of interviews. I got 12 interviews in 12 weeks.
• How to negotiate your salary and how to deal with the dreaded "how much money do you want?" question

• Can't get any interviews? There's a lesson on how to climb out of that hole

But most importantly, you'll learn the secret to always having a job in web development. Actually, it's not a secret, it's just something nobody openly talks about.
