In this thread, I will talk about my experience with the job and the industry.
Some honest Takeaways

1. No one can stop you when you master the basics

-You can start with any technology you want. But if you’re struggling, take a pause & restart your tech journey.
-Remember all new & fancy frameworks are based on the basics.
-Master basics you can code in anything

2. “What& #39;s more important to you: Quantity or Quality?”
Your answer might be: it depends.
But until you do an experiment in your core areas, how do you actually know about the quality.
Go & take calculative risk & be the change.

3. Professional Relationship (Create your bridges)
We all are humans behind code. It’s also about making connections & professional relationships.
Don& #39;t just always consume, help others as much as possible, time will return the favor.
Don& #39;t burn your bridges, Always create

4. Years of experience won’t make you qualified for a job.
Everyone looks for a genuine experience
People have different learning curves.
The only time we get a chance to be qualified is when we act.
Don& #39;t stay in your comfort zone. Look outside, world is moving faster.

“To be an expert in a field that changes from one day to the next is akin to placing your hand in a running river; you can trap a small bit of water for the moment, but once you lift your hand again the river rushes on”

There are no short cuts.
You need to find a balance between coding & your health
Coding is mentally demanding.
Depression is a real thing, always look for help.
Look for mentorship, Talk your best friends.
Job security is a myth.

7- Always respect diversity
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten">
Everyone talks about diversity.
Sometimes humans talk a good game, but don& #39;t follow through on their promises.
A diverse IT team is an asset that can help to drive innovation.

Sometimes humans talk a good game, but don& #39;t follow through on their promises.
A diverse IT team is an asset that can help to drive innovation.
people of different backgrounds can have ideas for new products and services that would be of interest to a broad audience or even a niche sector.
Those are good business reasons for seeking a diverse workforce. However, there& #39;s an even better reason, and it& #39;s a human reason.

8. Don& #39;t try to learn everything, YOU can& #39;t.
Find your NICHE, Master that one
Look for another area, again master that one & so on...
