Now that you have the skills necessary to get clients, your task is to create the first version of your online profile/portfolio. There are a number of platforms you could use but I recommend you start on Upwork. Make sure your profile is completely filled out and that you showcase the projects you have built up until this point. Once your profile is done, you'll be ready to start applying for freelance jobs.


Apply To 5 Clients
Believe it or not, you now have enough skills and an online profile so that you can start applying for client jobs and get hired! This process usually takes a while and it's good to start even if you don't feel "ready". Apply to 5 jobs online right now (on Upwork or elsewhere) and see what happens. You don't even need to "want" these jobs. The goal is to practice applying and practice going through the interview process with potential clients. Once you finish applying to 5 client projects (you don't need to hear back), move on to the next step in this Career Path.
Developer or Designer?
Do you have an idea of whether you want to focus on being more of a "Designer" or a "Developer"? If you know what you want to do, only do 2 of the 3 upcoming courses:
- Designer focused: Take the UI/UX Product Design Bootcamp followed by the CSS Bootcamp
- Developer focused: Take the CSS Bootcamp followed by the JavaScript 20 course






Apply To 5 Clients You Really Want
This time around, you have more knowledge and more practice. It's now time to take your hunt for clients seriously. Find 5 clients/jobs that you REALLY want and make a serious effort applying to these jobs based on the tips you learned in the previous lessons. Don't take no for an answer and see if you can land an interview/project with one of these clients you chose. Once you have an interview lined up, move to the next section.
Now that you have completed this path, it's time for you to specialize and upgrade your skills into a specific market. You are now at the point where you need to decide what you want to do in your career. Take the career path quiz again and update your answers based on your newfound knowledge from this path.
