I tried to explain why I used mongoDB once and I panic, started shaking and thought I was gonna faint! For me soft skills are the hardest
Great video, Thanks!
Conclusion from the final part:
1. Be patient with the time in the trenches
2. Develop your soft skills
3. Develop your technical skills
4. Become a decision maker
5. Practice interacting with others on the team.
This was a great video!!!! I'm in that phase of wanting to rush the process of being a mid-developer. Great insight!!
Thank you Travis as always!❤ Someone told me "Smile will put you way ahead of the competition". Soft skills aren't emphasized enough, thanks for doing it!!
Coding is not enough. You’re soft skills will go a long way. You can be a JavaScript/Python/C/C++/Java god, but without the soft skills… You’re not going to go far.
soft skills what u mean?
Thanks a lot for this coding insight..Am still new to programming and now learning JavaScript .Am energized by this video
Something that is really important to keep in mind when moving onto the "decision making" phase as a jr developer looking to take on more sr roles: Do it in a way that does not outshine those above you. I hate that this is a thing, but people get jealous and threatened when an inexperienced upstart begins trying to call the shots. There are ways to sound confident and capable, but also subtly so, with humility. Do not overrule anyone who is more senior than you, and when you make suggestions, word them as just that: suggestions (taking on the structure of "here are some ideas rolling around in my head, but what are your thoughts?" so they always have room to provide input on your ideas). Be participative and eager to contribute, and don't shy away from suggesting ideas, but tread very carefully if your eagerness ever puts you at a crossroads against your seniors. It's unfortunately the game we have to play, but if you participate by uplifting other people's ideas while contributing your own, and at the same time making sure you think hard before you disagree with your seniors or do anything that outperforms them, and I think your path to seniordom will be less rocky.
You are a great lecturer. I like pauses in your speech and how you present your logic.
As softskill and in written explanations i use following technique:
I use the technique from novels/history, I start with the action and only after involving the reader I start explaining backgrounds. Means not like Dickens where he explains first the weather, the way, the hills and gets to action only after 5 pages.
Like I start first with conclusions and then details and how I got from some assumptions to the conclusions.
Means i formulate everything to reach the conclusions, then rewrite it with the practical things in the beginning and then the boring details step by step.^^
Great videos .I could relate to almost all of the thing you said as jr.developer.
Great content, thank you
amazing knowledge thank u so much
The video which I was looking for
Ty 🙏🏾
I always love your content as a software engineer myself, it has been like more than 2 years since me wanting to start a RUclips channel myself but I'm still in doubt. or should I say procrastinating.
Start it up! And I’ll subscribe 👍🏾
Just do it
Thank traves ❤
Please what are your recommendations for books on soft skills or communication
There you go, 500 on the likes 👍
I want to ask you about the "promotion ladder" in IT, from your perspective, how long after being a junior can you become a mid, then mid -> senior, then an architect? One year for each position is a good way?
We discuss our information bubble, so I'm reaching for the opinion of an outside "expert" ;)
❤❤
Hi thanks for valuable tips, how old was you when you started coding?, because i want to do same as you did but i feel like i am over age
I was 34
I think in this vid you're explaining some stuff but in my opinion it's far from reality, or in my team it's done differently because of some prerequisites. If I will have time will return and explain in more detail.^^
Please do!
