I am beyond frustrated. I have been actively looking for steady employment or more freelance work for a few months. I have had interviews and they all say they love my work and my resume speaks to them. This latest interview I was told they would be updating their site to a Wordpress site. (Yes!!!) but for now I would need to know html and css for updating their current site. I assured them I could learn. It was only a small part of the job. I was told their timeline for hiring. (1/2)

(2/2) I was excited! I was told that the website would be a small part of the job description. I would be the in-house graphic designer for the entire company on the marketing side. Within a couple of hours of the interview ending I received an email stating that I would not be moving on in the process and I had been cut from interviewing. I then reached out to the person who interviewed me and asked why I was cut so early. They said it was because I wasn’t proficient in code but I could do everything else. I have been doing design in all aspects for 15 years. I am good at what I do and the greatest compliment I receive is “wow! You make us look like professionals!!!” Please, keep your fingers crossed for me.

Oh no. That’s cold. Question: so these companies list HTML in their job descriptions? If they do, and also to be honest if you know that’s the main reason. Just learn enough to say yes.

Granted. Coding is a rabbit hole. Do they just demand HTML and CSS? If so. Easy. Do they also demand JavaScript and other scripts? That’s harder. If they demand more, run!

But html and css are so easy to learn. It’s such a silly thing to get a “no” on
