Hey, you're really 13? Cool. When I was your age… ah, cut that BS. Okay, I don't have a job for you, but maybe a little advise: Continue what you're doing, but give yourself some time. You are obviously way ahead of others of your age, so no need to rush. Listen, learn – and become a kick-ass coder by the age of, well, let's say 16 :) Here's why: No matter what you do, no matter how good you are, people will take you more serious when you are a little older. Does that mean you should stop asking for jobs? Hell no! But use your in between time to develop skills that might help you later on. Explore some hardware hacking and electronics (start with Arduino, continue with building a synthesizer or something), make sure to have the basics covered: C++, Javascript, Python and/or Ruby, PHP etc. Then continue with something like Clojure, just to get an even better understanding. When it comes to real jobs: Start with an internship at a start-up or a webdesign agency. It's way easier to get in and you will most likely find people who are willing to support you, when they discover your talent. Continue from there. Oh, and don't forget to party as hard as you can. |
