I fit all of them except the programming part. I know html fairly well, I took java in school(but really really suck at it), and the rest, I have no idea.
first of all, is this a job that requires me to use programming a lot? will I need to sit there and program stuff? If so, then I wont even apply. I'm just asking because as a math major, this is the closest thing that matches me, but the programming requirement is really taking me down....
