Wow. This is such accurate knowledge.
That one really hits home. I remember sitting in my "office" at home trying to sort out problems. I had no one but myself and Stack Overflow haha
Thanks for sharing!
Same story bro! 😁
This is a fantastic write up that sums up my experience starting in development perfectly.
The world of development is so broad that it's hard to really know what to expect when you're just starting out.
The key is to learn how to learn
Really liked this article. I think number one should be 'Tech is only half the game; soft skills do matter', I personally didn't start to realize this until about 10 years in.
Also, I personally felt more satisfied when I started viewing my assignments with the question 'How will this bring value to the company?' When I started asking that to management, they responded favorably. I found that managers had greater satisfaction with me since I was starting to think of 'the big picture'.
Thanks man. I've read similar tips but it's always good to remember. I am former English teacher and I know already that most of IT don't do this: "the tech industry depends upon mature human conversation to solve real human problems"
Great post
Hello! Loved the article!! Motivated me to start thinking about updating my skills
Useful for college kids. But started with "whether you're self taught...". Was waiting for the self taught bits.
YES YES YES. Soft skills completely matter.
Being able to communicate is huge. You might be 10 billion times smarter than me and everyone else in the room and you might know how to solve all of our problems. But if you cannot effectively communicate what you know then none of that matters.

Wow, this piece came from a well prepared experience. I totally agree with this article
So agree with everything! Great article. 🙂
