I'm a full-stack developer primarily focused on backend. I'm searching for a full-time opportunity to learn and grow as a developer. I seek to advance my skills in one of the following technologies - Go, javascript,NodeJs.
I have 4 years of professional experience.
I'm open to all opportunities and suggestions where I can learn and further my skills as a software engineer.
A thing every hiring manager should ask, at least for Software jobs, is for you to show him code you've written. The best way to understand if someone has spend two, three or five years doing this, is to read his code. In case the interviewer doesn't ask me for my code, I would do it anyway. There is always this piece of code you are particularly proud of. Perhaps creating 10 ways to achieve the same thing. Senior developers write clean, efficient code ( if they don't, they should ). Junior developers find a way and if it works, hey it works! Mid level developers write a piece of crap code, but they see it as such. They make the difference. Once the difference is maid, you can go and ask the senior developer. Or do some research. Or both. This became visible to me once I wasn't in the phase "Oh shit, I don't know how I'm going to do this."
Peter has been working as a developer for 4 years.
Calvin has been working as a developer for 2 years.
Calvin earns the same money as Peter, why?
It seems Peter didn't put in as much effort as Calvin did. Even more, Calvin learned what Peter knows, for half the amount Peter did.
You can see where I'm going with this. For me personally work experience does NOT matter.
What makes a junior developer?
A junior developer knows enough to get things done.
If there's a more complex task, there is a big chance
he will require advice or help.
What makes a mid-level developer?
A mid-level developer knows enough to get things done
in a more sophisticated manner - compared to junior
developers which use the same hammer for every nail,
the mid-level developer utilizes different technologies
for different purposes. He is not proficient, but he
understands the need for different strategies.
I'm on the brink of becoming a mid-level developer. I used to tackle all of my problems with the tools I know, because I was unsure in my knowledge. Now I understand the difference. When given a more complex task, I will research what's the best way to do it, consult with senior developers and ultimately implement a solution.
I'm not an expert so this is my opinion, but you sound like you are in the exact same shoes. A rising mid-level developer, but a mid-level developer non the less.
Worked hard to get here as I'm sure you did. I heard this in a songs lyrics, but I use it as a motto in life - "I used to get what I'm given, now I only get what I'm worth".
Went Vegan about 8 months ago. Cut of meat and dairy products immediately. Feeling great. Been loosing weight - some people might want that, not me, skinny as it is. I was always a bad eater, so I guess removing meat and dairy came natural to me. What I can suggest is stop thinking of food as tasty. I'll eat dirt if it gives me the right vitamins and proteins, don't care how food tastes as long as it gives my body what it needs.
I know it's javascript and that it's definitely not the best choice for sound manipulation, but I'll learn a lot from practicing. C++ has a very steep learning curve and even if I understood music theory( which I dont, just a bass player ), I wouldn't be able to express myself in C++. So, decided to learn some music theory and implement this theory in javascript code.
