My Dream Job
Web Developer/Designer
Created by Vasil Kocev / Student in 10th grade.
Why do I like this job ?
I like this job because it gives me the opportunity to be creative and express my creativity through the world wide web.
You would normally work 37 to 40 hours a week, Monday to Friday. You may have to work extra hours to meet deadlines or when there are problems with a website. If you were self-employed, you would set your own working hours.
Oh hey, these are some notes. They'll be hidden in your presentation, but you can see them if you open the speaker notes window (hit 's' on your keyboard).Necessary qualifications
You don't need a specific degree to work as a freelance front and back end developer. However, if you want more flexibility and control over your designs, the knowledge of coding, scripting and programming would be useful. This includes knowledge in:
JavaScript
HTML
HyperText Markup Language
CSS
Cascading Style Sheets
XML
Extensible Markup Language
jQuery
Ruby on Rails
MySQL Database
Income
Starting salaries can be between £23,000 and £28,000 a year. The average salary is £57,000. Experienced designers can earn up to £72,500 a year, and senior designers and those with specialist skills can earn over £80,000 a year.
£1 = € 1.2621
Am I ready for this ?
I think I am ready for a web DESIGNER.
My plans for the future.
I still don't know if this is going to be my full time job in the near future. It is definitely a backup plan because I have another hobby that I would like to realise as my job but it is very difficult to succeed in that sphere.
