This advice would be good and all except for with all the layoffs that they just had... the market is now filled with people that literally do have 10 to 20 years of experience for an entry-level job
I can see how the tech layoffs would be frustrating! But -- it doesn't mean that the jobs aren't out there. You just have to be able to prove your worth!
@@devslopes again, you did it already and compared a college degree, and no experience to someone with 3-4 freelance clients... Now imagine 3-4 freelance clients vs 10-20 years of being at actual tech jobs... And they know 3-4 frameworks, and 2-3 languages. Jobs are out there... Sure, but so are literally thousands of way more qualified candidates, that are literally applying to every job there is
@@devslopesawesome video however can you go into much detail with the whole freelancing part because I noticed we also struggling to get gigs from there. Maybe you can give tips on how to standout since these simple giggs are now flooded with applications. Thanks
@@devslopes A lot of jobs are getting outsourced too. Americans are getting laid off and Indians are being hired to replace them. That's the scary part to me--these positions won't be coming back.
Other youtube channels just give generic experience like upskill and network,but you actually go in depth to what you say and help out with actual advice Thanks,it is a tough place to get an actual job without experience but imma put my grind on experience with startups nonetheless💯
supply/demand Companies get top notch candidates (years of experience and CS degrees) who apply for junior roles. They won't bother interviewing boot camp and other self-taught candidates who do not have years of relevant experience.
I had about six years experience designing and creating my own computer hardware and software and three year's experience working in medical physics also doing this, and then went to university which DESTROYED my employability. Coming out of university and applying for jobs it was like: "well, you're fresh out of uni, you're an empty box" err.... three to six years prior experience.... "shut up, you're fresh out of uni." err.... prior experience.... "SHUT UP!!!! You're bothering us, GET OUT! GO AWAY!!!"
i personally don’t get any positive replies or interviews at all. Literally have a production ready hosted application developed completely solo and some other projects cant even get an internship interview. HTML/CSS sass tailwind js ts react next.js express git sql no sql and CS degree in 1 month. Currently learning react native and still no hope
Me too lol. I’ve applied to multiple internships and it’s not working lol. I’m thinking of just doing IT and get some certifications and start with help desk cuz I don’t see it getting any better. The amount of cs degrees is getting crazy. Too much competition
@@devslopes my cv is a standard and follows most conventions. I aply every week to like 5 jobs. The thing is there are so many people sending their cvs’ just after watching some 1 hour react video lets say as a junior react and this means there are like thousands cvs send to that job and they dont even bother to interview people with no commercial experience
Bro you don’t necessarily need free lancing to land a job. Start networking , build your soft skills and learn how to interact with others. We all can become better with problem solving , learning syntax , etc , but not everyone has the ability to connect with people from different backgrounds.
I think it applies to both soft and technical skills. Some people have soft skills that others cannot develop (on the spectrum) some people can solve problems others just can’t.
I have 6 months professional experience, I know Java, Python, Html, CSS, Javascript, Angular, Sql, and AWS and have put in 2000+ applications and can't even get an interview...
It would be awesome to land those gigs. But realistically if you get a handful of small gigs for a couple hundred bucks -- they will have the same effect! What I would say is apply for the projects anyway!! More money to you!
Right now it is Dog Eat Dog. You need more than skill, you need to be trustworthy. Locals just aren't trustworthy because we have full 13th amendement rights to leave the job. H-1b and Green Card workers were all 90% re-employed (NPR) (despite press hysteria that the layoffs would be devastating for them). Instead of giving a 15% tax break to favor foreign students over locals (OPT visa program). We should have a national apprenticeship program, for all students and the unemployed. That 15% foreign worker discount should be applied to all students and the unemployed. Push for that, and you'll get more local students, and your business will increase, so will the opportunites of locals. BTW, the penalty for leaving the apprenticeship early (say before 3 years), the worker pays back the 15% tax discount to the Federal Government.
It's not about trust. It's about hiring the most qualified candidates for the lowest pay and benefits. Since it's an employer's market and for each job posting there are dozens of top notch candidates, self-taught wannabe programmers stand no chance. Out of 10 "I learned programming in 6 months and got hired, no CS degree or prior experience" fairy tales on youtube, you have maybe 1 that is actually legit, if that.
I will now comment on every video you upload because you provide a lot of valuable information for fresher like me. Everything you said I am implementing in my daily routine . 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
I can't stop laughing at all these bs videos and obnoxious influencers. The reality is there are programmers with CS degrees and years of relevant experience who apply to dozens of jobs, and can't even get an interview. Give me a break with your boot camps, online courses, projects and portfolios that recruiters won't even take a look at.
"Standout from the crowd"
Me watching this video with 5k other people💀
hahahhaha😂
Well, that 5000 other people might have the knowledge, but about 90% of them won't actually put in the work.

Don’t expect content creators like this to admit that. Junior devs are gonna have it hard for the next 3 years at least.

Well done my friend 👌🏾
I know html, css and a little bit of JavaScript.
It's time to land those projects!!!
Wow 😮
Thanks Man.
Much Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬
No be lie
😂
The hustle is real
Naija to the world
@@pharztv6049 chaii naija people dey find dollars
I think the reason is most of the entry level jobs demand years of experience is that because they do not have budget for seniors
supply/demand
Companies get top notch candidates (years of experience and CS degrees) who apply for junior roles. They won't bother interviewing boot camp and other self-taught candidates who do not have years of relevant experience.
This made me so positive after looking at those job requirements
was already rethinking my life choices lol
I had about six years experience designing and creating my own computer hardware and software and three year's experience working in medical physics also doing this, and then went to university which DESTROYED my employability. Coming out of university and applying for jobs it was like: "well, you're fresh out of uni, you're an empty box" err.... three to six years prior experience....

You Deserve more subs Thank you Brha, Greatly Appreciated
greatest time to learn programming
because you got all the time in the world before you actually get a job 😂
hahahhaa I hope this is satire humor
Just start your own company and have your company hire you to complete projects. Boom you now have paid experience.
FACTS😂
I know html,css and js. I have built a quiz game, Todo list, digital clock, unit converter and a budget trancker. But i am only 17 y/o so no jobs yet.
That's an awesome start to your journey!!
@@devslopes I thought u would never reply
I moved to sql server because html css is more complicated than it seems its not just html css is also react, node, saasetc
Thank you so much! Very empowering video!
Thanks so much for watching!!
great video! really motivating ty
You're welcome! Thank you for showing support!
Is ti still worth it with AI, it seems that AI will take over development...
requirements and interview are totally different from what you actually have to work on
100% could not agree with you more

Do you network?

This is a great solution!
What does you CV/Resume look like. Also how many job applications are you sending per week?

You're welcome 😊
your beard looks amazing, but more the last one thats more trimmed looks way better bro
great vid hoping to get my first job
I love the energy! Keep up the work!
hope this mentallity will land me to my first with-client projects. I don't care whether its full time nor freelance job
Keep pushing for it!!!
I have 6 months professional experience, I know Java, Python, Html, CSS, Javascript, Angular, Sql, and AWS and have put in 2000+ applications and can't even get an interview...
A solid structure here
Is what you said valid for those who want to become Android developers?
My question is, on a resume, if I don't know php should I list it anyway or nah
Bro I'm from india
I don't even know what is free lancing
I know python and java I never heard of php , css
What are those is my whole life a lie .
css is super easy to learn, it's for front end to edit HTML
Do you have a group on discord? I wanna join you
Where to find client that askes for this type of project's?
Wrost thing is when i was applying there was mentioned internship experience won't be considered 😢
ill be for the future to get in devslops by MAy having alot of expectations futher more
This is awesome!!!
I hope no one listens to these types of videos they are just trying to make money off of you
Do tech/dev companys accept Volunteer work?
what if i do the freelance job for free
lets start freelancing with React Js :)
i wonder if it's better to go for the $1k gigs instead? i say that because i feel like those seem like theyd look better to emplyoers
It would be awesome to land those gigs. But realistically if you get a handful of small gigs for a couple hundred bucks -- they will have the same effect! What I would say is apply for the projects anyway!! More money to you!
I live in a poor country. If it took me a week or less to finish that project, that's still more than I would earn in 3 months, or more.
Everyone can show off in the resume with fluff and its the same fluff everyone else puts in. Give them a reason to call you back.
