enthusiastic and competent Web Developer who, over the years, has built up a diverse range
of skills, qualities and attributes that guarantee I will perform highly in this role. I have
extensive experience working both alone and as part of a team on often time-sensitive,

capabilities and the ability to ensure all work is optimized across a wide range of platforms.
I take my work as a Web Developer seriously and this means I always ensure my skills are

company as a web developer? “There are lots of web developer jobs out there, but I want
one where I am going to be challenged and where the skills and qualities that I have
built up are going to be put to good use. I carried out lots of research into your organization
prior to submitting my resume/CV, and the work you do, the products and services you
offer, and the way you support your employees tells me this is a great place to work. I
am seeking long-term employment with the same company where I can really immerse myself
into their brand and their online ambitions, and this is genuinely the only place I want
to work as a Web Developer.” That's another really great answer to help you pass your

and you can download my full set of 29 Web Developer Interview Questions and Top-scoring
answers, including the ones we are working through together today. Here is the next question.
How do you plan a web development project? This is a common web developer interview question
that is assessing your ability to manage and produce difficult web development projects
in line with the clients or the organization's requirements. Here's a brilliant answer to
help you. How do you plan a Web Development project? “There are eight fundamental steps
I use whenever I plan a web development project. The planning stage is crucial to the project’s
success. Step one, I will define the goals of the project and specify the objectives
and the budget – what do we want to achieve, and by when. Step two, I will discuss and
establish the wireframe, going into detail of how the website must function including
ensuring it meets Google’s best practice guidelines. Step three, I will establish the
content that will be used at launch and the content strategy moving forward. Content is
king and I would be keen to ensure the content is fresh and, more importantly, it meets the
needs of the end user. Step four, I will establish the design and functionality of the website,
and these would be built around the wireframe and the website’s content strategy. Step
five, I would determine the team of people involved and who I would need to utilize to
get the project complete. This might include using outsourcers for specific elements of
the project, including graphic design etc. Step six, I would put everything into a definitive
action plan before commencing work. Step seven would be a period of intensive testing across
different browsers and mobile and desktop devices to assess the website’s speed and
functionality, before finally launching at step eight.” That is a brilliant answer
and it is very clever because you are talking about each of the different steps that you're
going to use when you plan a proper web development project to bring it to a successful conclusion!
And you can see there how effective it is by talking about those 8 DIFFERENT STEPS.
The next question, what do you like and dislike the most about being a web developer? Dealing
with and working alongside people is an important part of being a Web Developer. This question
is assessing which aspect you will find the hardest, and how you will overcome the challenges
that this role presents. Here is my answer to the question, what do you like and dislike
the most about being a Web Developer? “The aspects I will like include being able to
put my wide range of skills and expertise to good use during challenging web development
projects. I will enjoy working alongside other like-minded professionals who are all collaborating
to build the best website possible that meets the ever-changing needs of the end user. In
terms of the parts I will dislike, the only thing I would find difficult perhaps is when
I must deal with external outsourcers or contractors who don’t have the same appetite for project
completion as I do. Having said that, I have built up strong communication and interpersonal
skills over the years, so I feel confident I can drive people forward and get them to
complete things on time.” That is a really strong answer! You will notice there that
I have not mentioned about dealing with difficult clients, about being a part that I would probably
dislike. I don't think you should mention anything that's based around clients if you
are having to deal with them as a Web Developer, because that is just a challenging part of
the role that you would have to overcome. And if you find that bit difficult, then you
might not be able to achieve your goals as a web developer. The next question, what will
you bring to our company as a Web Developer? This question might be posed as: Why should
we hire you? Now, this will be another guaranteed web developer interview question that you
need to answer in a positive way. Make sure you give a response that is unique and that
makes you stand out from the other candidates. And here's the best way to answer it. What
will you bring to our company as a Web Developer? “I will bring a fast pace of working, in-depth
technical knowledge and an understanding of what is working right now within your industry
from a web development perspective. I will also bring strong project management skills,
teamworking capabilities and the understanding that professional web development is critical
to your organization’s success. Finally, I will bring a positive mindset, the ability
to fit into a team and an over-riding passion for web development that I believe you will
witness in the results that I produce for you.” That’s a great ANSWER! It’s short,
it is positive and it's punchy, and you will be the only one who uses that level of response,
helping you to pass your interview. Now, the next thing to do is make sure you CLICK THAT
