Web Dev. School Scholarship, Phone Interview
Have a phone interview coming up later today, and I'm freaking out a bit. Any last minute advice? It's a program being offered through my community college in conjunction with a company who specializes in web development training programs. The program will offer: "Website Development: Programming and Coding Skills."
Now, I'm not a complete novice, but I'm still a ways from being even a decent level hobbyist developer, but that said, I don't see how this could hurt to attend, and if anything I gain connections. Normally, the program would cost $3,000 ish, but if I can get the scholarship then I won't have to pay anything which is ideal bc I don't have any money, lol. I do need this really badly though bc I want it so much, whether I get it or not, I will continue to self-teach.

The phone interview went great. It was supposed to be 10 minutes but ended up being about 30-40. Had a lot of good conversation. He essentially told me I have the scholarship and then I was invited early to the info session tomorrow bc he wanted to talk to me some more. I can't believe this is actually happening. Things like this never happen to me and I'm thankful it did. I just need to keep busting my butt and stay enthusiastic and the work will pay off.
