  1. Don't invest money, though. Only time and sweat. Whoever tells you that they can teach you something for money lies to you in this industry. This does not apply to real university education, of course. The reason why you have to invest money in that in the US is an abomination of capitalism that you just can't get around as a student. In other countries university is free.

  2. For being unemployed? Absolutely the right choice. :-)

  3. Why would they? They asked for someone with a masters or higher degree and you showed them three trivial programs. ;-)

  4. You need a four year college education to get a white collar job. Yes, even for line cook. ;-)

  5. You can start with whatever you like. If you are applying for a job that has JS in the job description, of course, then you should better have written at least 10,000 lines of working JS script code before you go into that interview. Which is extremely easy, by the way... JS applications that run inside your browser do not even require you to install a third party interpreter or compiler. It's the most native thing you can do on any current platform that has a browser. And, by the way... if those 10,000 lines of JS are any good, you might not even need that interview any longer because you could be the owner of a really cool game app that makes you more money than the job ever will. ;-)
