I have a habit of hiring entry level folks for CSR work. Generally not much coding experience. Those that grow to want to contribute to our WebApp I start with HTML+CSS. Asking them to redesign screens, or modify/tweak the UX. It's a great way to start and many times their contributions make it in production. This creates a positive feedback loop. Nearly everyone expands to some scripting language after that (JS, bash, PHP, python). My goal is to train them all up on coding but if you "only" know HTML+CSS there is still room - or rather an open door to more. It's just one rung on a mobius type ladder.
