Man, I am a newbie in tech with some basic html and css and seeing you like this crushes my heart not only because I am a huge fan but also because I realized I still have a marathon to run before getting to the starting line.

Dude I have a bachelor's degree in cs with a lot of advanced projects and quite a lot of knowledge of various languages and frameworks. It's almost 2 years after I graduated and I don't have a job yet. If you're trying to get a job by being self taught I'd recommend staying in your current job and not wasting your time. There's very little chance you'll get a coding job. The self taught dev days are pretty much over.

Thank you for creating this content. Not many people share how hard the interview process can be. Building and learning in the process definitely helps. To anyone in the same position keep at it if you can and have the means to do so. Persistence is key, but also make sure to make time and space for the things you miss out on when you have a full time job.

Keep your head up man! I think it’s super important to show the harder parts of the industry, instead of the glamour of working and money and freedom. There are darker parts of this industry and this market. You got this dude.

Tech companies need to start taking risks again . Sometimes you won’t get the quality you think you’re getting from someone with 5-10+ years of experience. They could want more money or maybe they’re not coachable because they have their own method, etc. Giving someone a chance that doesn’t have the same amount of experience but has the desire to learn and grow will be more of an investment. Guys don’t give up. Some of us have been at it for 6 months, a year, two years and nothing. Remember why you started this in the beginning. You can do it. We all have different skillets and ideas that are valuable to any company. It’s there, it just takes the right person to see it. Show that the hard work will pay off. I’ve been at it for two years almost 3 but I know that I’ll have a job as a ux/ui designer. I can’t stop now not after all of the tears and hard work I put in . Love you guys :)

These new horror stories of people being laid off is not a good sign for us new developers

Love the content. Keep it up man

Nice video. I like seeing these "real talk" type of videos, and podcasts

🔥🔥🔥 content! Appreciate the transparency

I was laid off from a senior dev position in June. I was told a new policy came up that contractors can not be at the company longer than 10 months. i was there for 18 months. I was told around the 15 month mark that they loved me, wanted to hire me, but they were only allowed one new hire that was a staff level. So they need to wait. So I waited. I was asked if I wanted a promotion to a tech lead, and I declined for the time being. A few months later I was told I am being laid off. I have been on 9 interviews and still nothing.
