Sadly I think it only just occurred to me that I might be one of those 1 yr / 5 times people. Only because my job was mainly CRUD work. I did get to do some other stuff but it was not often. That place closed down and I've been looking for work since. Feeling like I must not have learned enough (or the right stuff) since I have had many interviews and not gotten any offers.
How much of an average developers time isn't CRUD?
How do you get the experience to do other things[1] unless you needed them for that one off project?
1. Unless you are talking along the lines of specializing in something idk what these things might be.
- russell 14y agoYou have my sympathies. One thing that might help it to pay attention to your attitude and demeanor. One problem is thinking that you are humbly begging for a job and that they are in control of the process. A bit more of a chip on your shoulder may help. Sure some my be put off by an "attitude", but if you arent having any success, why not? It may make you look like a can-do person.
- hfsktr 14y agoSo if I'm reading this right: Act like I'm a pro and can solve all their problems. My biggest issue is with confidence. It probably shows in interviews. I know that given the chance I can do just about any work (some might take more time but I am willing to put the effort in). One of the other threads recently was about questions during interviews. I learned that there are a lot more things I should be asking about that I wasn't.
