Jump-Start a Tech Career

Work on your own Web project as a way to hone your skills and demonstrate your knowledge. If your site develops a following, even better -- you're demonstrating your ability to interact with users. If a project of your own seems daunting, look for a nonprofit or community organisation seeking Web site development or maintenance. Companies take such efforts seriously. Expect questions from employers about your role in any sites you helped develop or maintain. Ideally, you will have demonstrated not only your Web skills but also your ability to work on a team.
