Publisher's Summary
A complete guide on how to get your first programming job from a hiring manager, even if you are changing careers, a transitioning military veteran, don't have a degree, or want to make more money.
I made a career switch from sales and with no coding experience to becoming a software engineer (with no degree) and am now a senior software engineering manager (hiring manager) at the largest tech company in the world leading teams of dozens of engineers. This is how I did it. For those looking to make a career change, want to get your first programming job, or learn how to actually get hired, this is the book for you.
In this book, I'll cover:
- How to get professional software engineering experience that you can put on your resume
- How to handle the technical interview
- What to expect in your first role as a software engineer
- Does formal education matter
- Does language you are learning matter
- How to structure your resume experience to get your first coding job
- How to get better as a developer
- How to find hidden engineering jobs that aren't on the job boards
- How to handle rejection and have hope
- How to get internships
- What types of jobs to apply for
And much more. So, if you want to get your first job as a software engineer, this is the book for you.
