Availability on the upcoming weekend is preferred, but we will consider candidates who can only work today. Upon completion of the original 2-hour programming project, we will decide if we test the candidate for another 4-8 hours. Candidates who make it the second round will be considered for our part-time position which would be from Monday to Friday for 4 hours per day (20 hours per week) If one of our part-time coders progresses to being capable of working on our projects on their own, then a full-time position where they will be work on projects from start-to-finish. PHP tasks programming usually require Wordpress Codex tasks including development of unique shortcodes and parameters that allow various display results or the create of minor plugin functionality . Candidates with knowledge of Thesis theme and Woocommerce as well as more advanced plugin programming will also be given preference over those without. jQuery tasks would most include script configurations on various design with scripts such as Flexslider, Magnific Pop, Flowtype, SmoothScroll, ScrollSpy, [login to view URL] and jQuery UI (Tabs, Sliders, Autocomplete, Datepicker, etc.) Candidate with custom jQuery script coding skills again would be given preference over those without.

I am available for testing starting .... " with preference to those who are available immediately and possible available this weekend for some extended testing.
