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.
