Tips for Getting Work

• Success in Web Development doesn't come from getting a qualification!
• Many of the most successful web developers do not hold university degrees
• Many I.T. degree graduates have tried and failed to develop a successful career in web development
• Success comes from what you learn, not what you qualify in
• Successful web developers need to be prepared to start at the bottom, take work wherever they can find it (even if pay is poor) and build a career from the ground up
• Few developers ever earn big money working for someone else. If you want a big income; you probably need to be self employed
• If you are going to be self employed; you need to learn business skills, develop a capacity to find clients and sell your services, and above all, have the right attitude and persistance to develop a business
• Make sure you learn the type of programming that is in demand; and that you are prepared to keep learning and staying up to date as your career rolls on.
