I can do well enough on programming challenges at a place like HackerRank. However, I very rarely actually get to the technical interview in a job application; most commonly, I apply and don't hear back from the company. So as far as I'm concerned, I need better something but that something isn't better skills.
- oblio 10y agoMore networking, possibly better networking (easy, I think). Better university name (hard to do). Better company names (not that hard, I think). (Major) Open Source contributions (not hard, but time consuming). Other studies or certifications (easy). If they're not calling you, I'd work on these.
