> Learning things by yourself is actually much of the job
Think this statement explains the fast success of the writer. The drive to experiment and find solutions is so valuable, and surprisingly in short supply.
As a hiring manager, one of the big hesitations I have re: bootcamp grads is whether they need to be spoon-fed, or have the hunger to move things forward. Especially true for startups that tend to bet more on potential vs. raw experience. For anyone in this boat, https://topstartups.io/ https://topstartups.io/ is a good place to start
- john-radio 4y agoThanks for the link. I've been working in old and/or biggish tech for my 4 years so far, and only recently joined a startup and something about it just deeply works for me. The newness and smallness of it all makes me feel paranoid that if I don't do it, it won't get done, so I've been moving fast and making shit happen instead of what I had been doing, which is relaxing into the good work situation and not learning as much as I could.
