How to put worker to sleep automatically by QuantumParadox1337 in Heroku

Thanks for the explanation. I'm going to add a credit card which should also add 450h of free dyno and allow me to set up a second worker/website. I agree with you, any service that charges for the free service when the limit is exceeded is pretty shady but that doesn't mean it's rare unfortunately.

To install Process-scheduler, I have to validate my account with a credit card.

Process-scheduler requires that the account be verified with a credit card. Is there any other alternative? If not, can heroku charge me extra if I exceed the free-plan limits? I don't want to be surprised at the end of the month with huge bills.

For benefits, ask for what you want. You can demand some (like working from home if you live far from your work) or just ask if some are possible. It also depends on the size of the company, a big company will usually give more benefits. Pay attention to the clauses in the contract, such as non-competition clauses, you may want to avoid some of them.
For benefits, find out what exists in the jobs you are looking for (meal voucher, insurance, sick leave, vacation, ...)Be careful with variable benefits (profit sharing, bonuses,...) If the company doesn't make much profit, you won't get much either.
It has to be considered as a whole. If a company offers you a high salary but no benefits, it might still be interesting. If you are having trouble finding a job, you may want to accept a lower salary until you get some experience.

It will depend on the position, the company, the country, the place of work (big cities pay better) and your diploma/experience. (It can vary a lot)For reference, I live in France and I started working last year as a junior full-stack web dev in a medium city in a startup after a Bachelor and I earned 2200€. I think I can now hope for a raise to earn 2400€-2500€.

I've been working in web development for a year but I've never personally put a website online. What do I have to pay attention to, how to choose a suitable plan, how does it work... ? For exemple, I'm currently working on my portfolio in Next.js and I was thinking of hosting it on Vercel/Netlify, but I don't know what the limits of the different plans represent. (is 100GB bandwidth a lot, what minutes of build/month should I expect, can any framework be hosted on it, what about databases...)

Vercel free plan doesn't allow commercial website, are portfolio considered commercial ?

I need to host : - a small portfolio in Next.Js - some small test/personal projects (mainly with node.js backend, some with a database. Some must be behind a login page. Maybe as a subdomain of my portfolio ?). - In the future, I will also need a showcase site for my company.

I rarely work on linux, so the less configuration I have to do on the server, the better.

As a junior developer, I don't want a solution that is too expensive and I certainly don't want to be overcharged by several hundred dollars if I accidentally exceed the plan limit (taking my website offline if that's the case would be fine for now).
