Ellen Booth moved into Junior Web Developer

I’d worked successfully in the charity sector for over a decade, but most jobs in my field were London based and I wanted to move back home to the North of England to raise my daughter. I’d had an interest in learning programming for a while and this course offered me the opportunity to switch careers without having to go back to university.

While the interactive coding lessons were essential to learning the basics, I enjoyed the two projects more. Doing the projects teaches you how everything you’ve learnt comes together to allow you to make almost anything.

After finishing the course I was in a position to choose between two job offers and I’m really glad I chose One Call. It’s a bigger team, which means there are lots of experienced developers to learn from. Everyone is really friendly and willing to help because they’ve all been there and know it’s a steep learning curve at the beginning.
