As an eLearning instructional designer, my days are packed with designing courses, creating interactive modules, and collaborating with clients to ensure that the end product meets their unique needs. Today was no different, and I found myself deeply entrenched in a project when my phone suddenly pinged with a message from Fiverr.com.
At first, I was hesitant to check the notification, knowing how easily distractions can throw me off course. But something about the message caught my eye – a job posting for an experienced course designer for an interactive eLearning series.
As I skimmed the job requirements, I couldn’t help but feel a spark of excitement. The description aligned perfectly with my skills and passions, and the opportunity to work on a project with such clear objectives was exactly the type of work I craved.
Still, I hesitated. My current project was nearing the deadline, and I didn’t want to jeopardize its quality by diverting my attention. But the thought of the new opportunity lingered in the back of my mind, enticing me with the possibility of pursuing a project that aligned so perfectly with my expertise.
Before I knew it, I was drafting a message to the job poster, outlining my skills and experience and expressing my interest in learning more. As I hit send, I felt a mixture of excitement and apprehension, knowing that my next project could be waiting just around the corner.

This job posting immediately piqued my interest for a variety of reasons. As an experienced course designer, I thrive in creating engaging, interactive modules that not only deliver content but also make learning a fascinating experience. The focus on “interactive eLearning series” suggests that they are not simply looking for run-of-the-mill courses, but a more dynamic, engaging approach that aligns perfectly with my own philosophy. Additionally, the opportunity to potentially work on a variety of courses within the series was intriguing, offering a chance for continual growth and development. And finally, the fact that the job was posted on Fiverr.com, a platform I trust and use frequently, gave me additional confidence in the legitimacy and potential of the opportunity.
The moment I laid eyes on the job posting, a wave of nostalgia washed over me, transporting me back to a similar project I had taken on almost two years back. Back then, I was hired to build an interactive eLearning series for a renowned tech firm, geared towards broadening their employees’ knowledge about AI. As I intook the specific details of this past experience, the rush of countless brainstorming sessions, endless execution cycles, and the eventual triumph of seeing engaged learners navigating the courses I designed, rekindled in my memory, stoking the fire of excitement for this new opportunity.
The completion of that former project was a landmark of professional growth for me. I had successfully turned complex tech jargon into interactive, engaging learning material, and the positive feedback I received from both the client and the learners was a real testament to the impact of good instructional design. It was my first significant venture into designing a comprehensive eLearning series, and the successful outcome had left an indelible mark on me. The memory of it now, sparked by the similarity in the current job posting, reignites my passion. I am reminded of the sense of fulfillment I derive from bringing such projects to life, making learning not just accessible, but exciting and engaging. I am also reminded that each project is a valuable opportunity to grow, to learn, and to impart knowledge—a chance to further hone my skills while creating a meaningful impact.

As a seasoned professional, I have to balance my enthusiasm for projects with practical considerations like remuneration.
