Obviously that trumps everything. When I said I was looking to break in, I meant I have limited experience and skills.
- aantix 14y agoI understand now. My best advice; create something open source. If front end is your strength, create a few sample layouts and provide the html/css. If Javascript is your thing, create a nice jquery widget that others could utilize. If Ruby is your thing, create a gem. Once you've done something like that, be sure to promote it. Post it to RubyFlow, the appropriate Subreddit (reddit.com/r/ruby, /r/javascript). Get a few "stars" for the library to show that others are interested in what you do. Lastly, be sure to include it on your resume. Top of your resume. Front and center.
- wilfra 14y agoThat's really helpful actually. Sounds like fun too, I have a few ideas already. Thanks!
