Out of curiosity, where did you find employment? I know you struggled in applying to new places, but clearly you found some. Do you feel you got lucky?
I feel i'm in the same boat, but with a different set of technologies. Regardless, i'm curious on what you feel you have succeeded at. Might be informative :)
- whamlastxmas 10y agoI'm in my second full time developer job. The first was front end only, and my current is full stack. First job was because I knew someone that moved to that company and ranted and raved advocating for them to hire me. My current job cared much less about technical aptitude and more general attitude and fit, and also pays fairly poorly (not just me, everyone). So I just sort of got lucky to some extent. Not sure what I've succeeded at. Being willing to learn is probably the biggest attribute to doing really well at my two developer jobs (according to my past and current boss). And just generally being a polite person who's easy to work with and willing to take on tasks without complaining.
