INTERNET CAREERS: Front-End, Back-End and E-Everywhere
E-commerce, e-learning, e-zines, eBay - what's the common denominator? The "e" of course! But in today's fast-paced, highly
connected world, that "e" doesn't just stand for "electronic"; it stands for "everywhere" as more and more people link up
online. This program travels the Web to explore Internet careers in three main areas: the front end, the back end, and
everywhere in between. Front-end insights come from a programmer, a graphic designer, and a quality assurance tester;
back-end information is provided by a webmaster, a help desk specialist, and a sales associate; and an IT recruiter, an
advertising sales rep, and an entrepreneur explain how they've integrated the Internet into their careers.
