VietProtocol

Working experience can be invaluable for personal and professional growth, and working with the right company can provide a wealth of opportunities for learning and development. For me, VietProtocol was that company. As the first and only Vietnamese company that I worked with, it provided me with a unique set of experiences that helped me hone my web development skills.

One of the most valuable experiences I gained while working at Vietprotocol was developing a website based on Joomla!.
