How to stop being junior developer. Stop calling yourself junior. You are web developer or software developer or software engineer. When you go on interview for a job they will see how much skills you have.

Junior Dev -> One monitor
Mid -> Two monitors
Senior -> Three
Top dawg -> Joshua

Senior dev is when you don't care of the language, only the data structures.

You know you are Junior Dev when you have animated wallpapers and RGB gaming keyboard. Booom ;)

[Kevin-jcfx]

The dream was to do this full-time and now your dream came true. Congratulations Joshua.

[bradysnuggs]

Happy birthday, Josh! There’s a likely chance I’ll be entering a Bootcamp soon, and your videos have been super helpful. Thank you for everything.

[bigollie]

Stop apologizing for trying to make money dude. Thanks for the video

Hey man, stumbled on your YouTube last week. I'm in a career change towards front-end development so your channel has been a huge help

[pedrocxbx]

Man, your channel is growing fast, 11000 subscribers! Congratulations man, love your content.
Cheers from China.

I think that what makes you Senior level has less to do with the technology and much more to do with design patterns, clean code, and sheer experience. Although I agree if you dont completely know a stack you can be behind but you have the coumpounding force of years of knowledge that will make you much more valuable than a junior at doing the same job (if you are good). Smart employers hire for these raw skills if the unicorn cant be found.

[DanielNistrean]

You deserve more subscribers. As always, true.

The salaries that you mentioned don’t apply to NYC. Start is around 105-110k.

[leopoldroitel]

I think you are putting a lot of emphasis on the technical side where there is other key areas that gives you some level of seniority: ownership, listening, leadership for example...

[marin.aldimirov]

I don't like the notion that levels are measured through time worked. I was hoping to get a different point of view. For instance I've been a web dev for 3 years, and my team says I am ready for a senior level assessment. I think this is a very interesting topic and that there is more to explore and discuss.

[JavierCarrion]

Josh happy birthday 🎉! May ask a question since on your previous videos regarding applying to jobs and getting interviews you have being careful to say and announce to your current employer that you are not leaving or getting another job. How do they feel about you doing this full time?

[coreybutler]

Happy birthday dude! Your channel has been a great source of info - thanks

[loganlee]

thanks mate, this video help me to think about bymyself :)

[TylerLemke]

The other thing to remember is that companies will always need people to convert code from one code base to another, so as long as you are realatively smart you can get spun up on the latest tech.

[Cavaleria]

The ability to mentor others is important as a senior.

The difference : some are a bit older and know how to pretend they know what they are doing
