Biography of Maxim Volkov

An application for an article at Gladlax at the end I took up the magazine and analytics in the end of the magazine: I screwed Yandex-metric and google-analysts to the site, added a plugin for WordPress, which shows a rating of an article on CEOs and errors. Now letters with statistics come to the post office - the main edges can analyze user behavior. I liked being to be the head.

This is cool - to be the captain of the ship: no one says what to do, there is only my initiative and responsibility. If there was an opportunity, I would repeat this experience. During the defense of the diploma, he met with the leaders of the magazine: Kirill Morozov and Nastya Romanova, how did you combine two works, study and annocation? I was lucky, the main work does not take me all the time, so I can combine it with other activities.

During my studies, I scored all the windows in the schedule by school, magazine or Tinkoff's tasks. For example, my working day could go like this. He got up at six in the morning and checked and commented on a couple of articles. Having arrived at work, he was engaged in the business of the magazine for a couple of hours. During the working day, he took short breaks in order to, for example, answer the authors or discuss the cover for the future issue with the designer.

He studied at lunch: he managed to eat in 20 minutes, and 40 minutes remained at a lecture. After work during dinner, he inspected the lectures, and after until night he made tasks from Tinkoff. So that the work on the magazine does not accumulate by the end of the week, and I managed to with outlets on Monday, led several articles at once. Before Wednesday, I tried to ensure the material for the next week and give it to the designer.

And from Saturday to Monday, it turned out. It happened that he did not have time and gave the article to the designer only on Saturday, and Sofya Kurganova, the magazine designer during my stay at the post, left for the weekend and gave ready pictures only on Monday. Therefore, I had to wind everything at the last moment. But Sophia never failed. Sometimes I think about what my life would look like if there were no editors school, work in Tinkoff and the magazine: in the morning I came to the factory, I worked for 8 hours and home, on the sofa.

I think that I would go crazy with boredom or drank from such an uninteresting life. Of course, it was hard, and it was not without losses - I had to abandon the gym, a hobby and devote little time to the family. During my studies, I looked like the hero of Adam Sandler from the film “Click”, who did not see anything further than the monitor. But I understood that it was temporarily and would not work out without victims, the thought was spinning in my head: “Now a turbobust is happening with me, be patient, it is temporary.” Thanks to the family for understanding this and trying to support it!

How did you manage to stay in the top rating? At the first stage, I was steamed over the tests, checked everything many times and tried to hand over to the maximum. I was pushed by the desire to find an answer, and I did not calm down until I found it: I re -read it, I was looking for additional information, I watched blogs and tips. There were times when I was looking for and did not find a direct answer, I had to answer at random - it was most infuriated.

My deadline was on Saturday, so I watched lectures all week and partially filled out tests, and on Saturday in the morning I got up with a fresh head, looked again, compared with lectures and handed over. I couldn’t calm down on the second step: an hour to the deadline, and I move the pixels and I can’t send the task. Several times it was such that he poured work on the site, saw flaws, removed everything and remade.

And then in the morning he found new jambs and prayed that the teacher would not notice them and would not reduce the assessment. For example, in the first week, when I did the task “Text about the company”, it was necessary to remove hanging prepositions. Then I did not know how to put an inextricable gap on Windows, and ruled them with a tab and gaps. But after the surrender, something went wrong: the lines moved out, and holes appeared between words and unions.

He was terribly worried about this, but it carried-Maxim Ilyakhov did not reduce the assessment. It can also be delivered using a printing layout of Ilya Birman, during training at the first step, they competed with Katya Dmitrieva, who will steal the test more steeply. The final rating changed a lot, but during the training the nostril went to the nostril with it, what are you seeing the differences between the first and second steps?

I liked the first step more, because after it I felt that I had grown up: all unobvious skills, skills and knowledge gained a meaningful form. For example, earlier I could increase the Interlinage purely intuitive, because it looks better. And now I understand that I act on the principle of internal and external. There was plenty: began to notice the jambs in tables, articles, and a mile.

At the second stage of growth, there was less. The comments of the teachers did not help me, the work looked bad even after corrections. I was unhappy, but did not know how to improve - any change did only worse. The chat with fellow students and their completed tasks helped most of all. Some works were brilliant, I would like to be able to do the same. What advice will you give to those who want to go to the school of editors, but are afraid that he will not be able to combine studies and work?I have a motto: "Whoever wants, looking for opportunities, who does not want - excuses." If you want, you will find time, effort and money, and if it doesn’t work out, then you want badly, or you, in fact, do not need it.

On this topic there is a film by Vladimir Gerasichev “Life, Instructions for use”, which I recommend to everyone - this principle is understanding there. Understand whether you really want something. If so, do not be afraid and try, everything will work out. The main thing is not the power of one pressure, but the number of attempts. From the side it seems that you are not afraid of anything.

This is wrong. I am not a terminator, not an iron person - I am also scared. But I try to fight my fears and include awareness. For example, before admission, he reminded himself that all school students are the same people like me, they also do not know how, worry and are afraid. It is important not a lack of fear, but what you are doing with him. After all, a coward and daredevil experienced the same feelings, but the latter can fight and not show that he is afraid, and the coward obeys this feeling and refuses to do anything.

I remember how I looked at the ratings of students before admission and thought that they were so cool at school that, God forbid, to get into the thirty. And it turned out like. I think that curiosity, the desire to learn and perseverance helped here. When I went to the first step, I realized that I was limping on most of the disciplines of the school.

During the studies, he steamed the most steamed in typographic and miles, interfaces and negotiations.
