Landing Your Dream Developer Job with Emma Bostian

In this Honeypot mini-doc, we follow Emma Bostian as she relocates to Stockholm to start her dream job at Spotify. She talks about her journey from early days as an uncertain college graduate, to her work at IBM, to what she’s doing now as a tech influencer, podcaster and Spotify engineer. Plus, Emma opens up about her personal career struggles and how her new move has changed things. If you love Emma (and Max Stoiber), you're gonna love them even more after watching this mini-doc.

So excited this is finally out, I love Emma's story! Very happy I could play a tiny part in telling it 💜

I reaaally love seeing these videos. Seeing someone succeed and grow makes me super happy. Go Emma!

[vivekkaushik]

Wow! This video gave me HOPE. I've been thinking of quitting my job lately. I guess I'll have to find a good one where I feel I belong! Thanks Emma.

I like Emma. Because of here course on frontendmasters, I started to deep dive into Design Systems. It's now a major part of my business as UX Engineer.
But 8:23 made me think: Learning algorithms just for the interview, but not using them at the job in most cases feels somehow wrong. An interview closer to the real job is always better in my opinion. If it's a job for instance in the AI business, I get it, algorithms are bread and butter.

I personally admire Emma Bostian a lot.

She's so active and inspiring! Are you going to do similar docs with the list: Kelly, Ali... and other unique tech Rockstars?

[wolfymaster]

Been following Emma on twitter for a while... didn't realize everything she did. Pretty much everything I would love to do, but have no idea how.

Every video by Honeypot is an indescribably pleasant experience. The most inspiring for me is when you show that we can be whatever we want to be which means NOT ONLY a software engineer. I would like to see more stories of people who are not just developers but also ARTISTS.😉

Lovely and motivating story. Love to see super-girls taking charge and hack their way through a career like this. I will be sharing this as a "mentoring video" in my CreatorsTribe community.

A few suggestions: I wish there was a high-res camera for Max, too. Also maybe drop the webcam view?

Great content though.
