FCC wants only high quality jobs from high quality employers, so they are currently charging $1000 to post a job on the job board. FCC is still trying to figure out how to market to employers and help them understand what they will get when they hire an FCC graduate. Only about 5% of people in the U.S. learn to code compared to 100% in China. Already, software developer is the most common job in some U.S. states. Providing coding education to everyone for free is a big and ambitious goal. The job board (and its cost) is just another manifestation of that. -**-If I'm an established developer, can I start work on nonprofit projects immediately?** [@QuincyLarson](/users/quincylarson) - No. Everyone who works on our nonprofit projects has to earn the Full Stack Development Certification first. Completing the program isn't just about demonstrating ability, it's also about demonstrating commitment to the program. It's important that people who work on the nonprofits are dedicated and have put in the time and effort to get to that point; FCC doesn't want people quitting half way through a project. [@QuincyLarson](/users/quincylarson) pointed out that FCC is intentionally difficult and is probably among the most difficult coding resources around. Even people who have experience coding can take hours to complete a Front End Project or Back End Project. This is by design.
