    It's been more than a year since I learnt full-stack web development, have a wide portfolio.
    did some freelance web development, but that's about it. can't get a single response for a full-time job.
    I am at a point where I have full confidence that I can handle whatever a job throws at me. I can learn any new programming language and framework for the sake of the job.
    but no one gives you a chance when you have no degree or connections.
    I just apply to jobs and get auto rejections.

      You can only get in trouble if you lie about credentials i.e certs or degrees that are accredited. Everything else is free game. I used to work for a company that would train Android developers and fabricate resumes for you and get you high end jobs and just got a percentage of your pay.

    and also different country has different job requirements, in indonesia is much harder to get software engineer jobdesk, cause you are required to have a IT degree, if you dont have it, atleast you already skilled enough to be full stack + computer science, else, just create your own platform like individual application (web, mobile, server, etc)

    It took me a year to learn front-end and make 4 pet-projects. This time includes: html, CSS, SCSS, JavaScript, Typescript, React, Jest. I still can't find a job though. Everyone wants experience, so in overall, it can take much longer.

      Sounds like you're doing something wrong honestly. A strong portfolio would get you in the door even without "experience ". Learning to code is one thing but you actually need to build stuff to separate yourself from every other random bootcamp grad.

    The major challenge and hurdle for beginner programmers is mastering loops iterating through an array or statements. I think if one is great at math it's easy, but for most, it's a struggle.

    • @travis8229
      @travis8229 Год назад +1

      Just loops in general are difficult to master. Experienced programmers can easily generate/devise loops to execute statements or iterate through strings and integers placed in a array or arrays.

    And you need to build some stuff. Not just anything, stuff you’re passionate about. You like math, build an app that teaches a child there abc’s etc. Nonetheless build stuff. 2nd make mistakes! If you’re not failing you’re not pushing your limits, that means you’re not learning. Memorizing will only get you so far. Third, teach others. This will come later, but this will solidify what you know. Happy Coding!

    Can you learn to program in six months? Sure. Can you get a job programming? Maybe. But there are 6,000 applicants per job, and a lot of them have a lot more experience than you. I learned that the hard way after spending a year learning to code, building projects, making connections, doing everything you're supposed to do. People with masters of computer science degrees aren't getting hired right now.

      Quick question, this program seems pretty quick, is this something you’re suggesting would take 6 months? Or your program just a foundation / tutorial to get someone started and then they’d study something else for a few months after?
