Question McKesson "work-at-home" coders

I am trying to connect with some of my "co-workers" that have been recently hired by McKesson so that we can form some type of network. If you are interested, please post, text me, send me a message, or join me on my Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/cyalden

Hope you are all doing well!

Christin

This link has a lot of information about coding from home as well as a list of companies that hire remote coders.

Good luck!

Default Home coding

Companies generally require you to have at least 3 years coding experience before they will employ you as a remote coder. In addition most set pretty difficult assessment tests as well. If you have no experience who will you ask when you have problems (which you will)?
I'm not trying to diissuade you but I am being realistic. Get some real-world coding experience first in a setting where you can go to colleagues for help.
