How do I get a job? What do I do next? How?

I just finished the "Web Design" Track and will probably do the "Front End Web Development" Track next and so my question is how do I get a job within the next 2-3 months? What are the steps I take? can anyone help? Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi Nick,

I would focus on building some personal projects and a portfolio to showcase them in.

It's one thing to learn about web development, and another to practice it. By building out some projects you'll prove that you have the skills you say you do. It also shows that you have an interest in your craft, and an initiative to tackle projects and solve problems.

As an extra, put your code up on Github so employers can see that you're actively coding, and check out your code and the tools you use!

Best of luck!
