The HIDDEN Challenges of Being a Software Engineer 2023 – Can You Handle It? 15:26

לפני 2 years15:26

15:26

In this video, I reflect on my seven-year journey in the tech industry and discuss how it has completely transformed my life. Despite starting as a software engineer without a clear understanding of what the role entailed, I have grown in my career and tripled my income since my first layoff. However, the tech industry is much more challenging than people realize. It's not just about getting your first job, but also having the endurance to continuously learn and adapt to new technologies. From front-end development using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to diving into data engineering and learning Python, Postgres, and more, the learning never stops. In addition to the constant learning curve, the tech industry also goes through periods of layoffs and reduced job opportunities. This video explores my experience of these challenges and shares insights on how to stay relevant and competitive in a constantly evolving field. Join me as I discuss the importance of endurance, adapting to change, and investing in your tech career. #TechJourney #SoftwareEngineering #WebDeveloper…

I've been a web developer for 5 years - Here's what I learned 27:58

לפני 4 years27:58

27:58

I was a below-average student I am not a college graduate. I am a self-taught front-end engineer who has been on this journey for 5 years and still going strong. This career is not always easy, to be honest, but if you're willing to work hard enough you can do anything. You might have heard that education is the new currency of our time and maybe some part of you believes that too; but what happens when your education does not come with a degree? What are we supposed to do then? Well, I'm here to tell you: don't give up! Give yourself time and space so that your skills can grow as mine did. It took me years before I could be good at what I do. What I learned Get your hands dirty / become an expert at what you love doing; repeatedly practice every day until you're at least pretty decent at it NEVER give up or quit just because of failure Hone your skills, learn faster than others, improve the quality of your work over time; add real value to yourself and those around you Never feel too proud to ask for help -- it's easy to get caught up in your own head and end up going down a dark path of no return Build strong, valuable relationships with those around you - this includes becoming an expert at networking and getting referrals. Some are hungry for knowledge; others just want to stay stagnant. Take advantage of the latter if possible Be confident. Do not let someone else's lack of confidence drag you down...they're not worth your time Learn from the best; reflect on how they became successful & replicate their success for yourself (and extend it even further!) Always be learning & getting better - don't be satisfied with "good enough" or ordinary work! Have fun with it; life is meant to be enjoyed Go out on a limb - so what if it breaks? Life's worth living isn't it? Look at all the opportunities that would've been missed had you not taken a risk. There are always more trees in the forest ;-)…
