The best career hack I know is this:
Reverse interview your future manager and another 1-2 people after you get an offer.
This technique beats almost *every* career advice I know. Yet so few people use it - speaking as a hiring manager.
Here’s how (and why) to do it:

To be a developer you have to be able to endure long and intense periods of feeling stupid on a consistent basis.

I'm going to say it again: people managers, check on your team. Make sure they are:
* engaged
* supported
* resting
* feeling trusted
* empowered
* appreciated (privately AND publicly)
Always... but especially now. You can spend your time on retention, or on hiring. Your choice.

It makes me mad that with 0 months experience it feels almost impossible to find a job and then suddenly with 20 months experience you get hit up weekly for senior roles. So incredibly off balance.
Just hire jr devs please.

As we grow, we *URGENTLY* need new volunteers to instruct our courses. If you're proficient in Python, SQL or JavaScript we need your help. Click the link below for more information! There's no gender requirement, and you don't need to be a pro developer!

It’s pretty damning that most programmers I talk to say they’re bad at tech interviews.
These are people I’ve seen code extensively. They’re incredibly talented!
And yet they have no confidence they could pass a coding exercise.
So who exactly are these designed for?

Me: I BELIEVE SCIENCE
Science: please just don’t use your phone right before bed and right after waking up, it’s literally destroying your circadian rhythm
Me: no

Totally bombed a code challenge interview this morning & sat in my feelings as the metaphorical flames died out.
Here are some things I found helpful during my process of figuring out the challenge as much as I could.
A thread.

Periodic reminder: 5 year median earnings for an NFL football player, are *lower* than the 5 year median earnings for a Silicon valley software engineer. 🤯
Plus, we get the same or better perks! And no guaranteed CTE 🤷🏿♂️
