So you want to be a web developer?

Wall Street On Demand designs, builds, and hosts web sites and applications for many of the largest banks, brokerage houses, and media outlets in the world. We create richly interactive sites using C#, Javascript, CSS, and HTML. We've been building "Ajax" based apps since it was just a cleaning product, are continually pushing the browser as an application platform, and are passionate about creating sites that are highly performant during periods of huge traffic .

We need help, and that's where you come in. Wall Street On Demand is hosting a web developer training program. You get to learn how to build complex web applications; we get to grow our development team.

You will be paid for your time in the program. It's a six week engagement (9-5, M-F), starting August 16th. If you do well, you will be offered a full time salaried position with benefits. Since our goal is to expand our development team, it is our hope that every person enrolled in the program is given a job offer.

We're looking for people with experience writing code (regardless of language or platform) who want to expand their skills to include web technologies. The program consists of lectures from members of the WSOD development team focusing on client and server side technologies, as well as our own libraries and frameworks, and a lot of hands on lab time.

Please email your resume to jobs@wallst.com to apply for the training program.
