This gave me motivation to stop procrastinating on job searching and start working on my portfolio. Thanks 🙏

6 months into my own tech journey and I just landed my first tech job. He's absolutely right. I started applying 2 months ago. If could add one thing, reach out to people and find someone who is willing to refer you. Don't worry about if you really know each other or not. I had help from a referral through a friend of a friend. It's the third door method.

I am a living proof of this you are right sometime we even more ready than what the job required

This is probably something you've answered before, but what exactly would one put on their self-taught resume when preparing for a career shift? I've been in church work for 10+ years and learning code for 13 weeks. I'm just nervous my resume won't even make it from the bottom of the stack (physical or digital)😅. Thanks for all you do to inform and prepare us, my dude!

With all those nice looking salary job postings that makes me want to hit apply i know i still need more time to put my portfolio together before im ready. By ready I still don't think it's at those higher salaries positions and more of a lower end.

That johny sins really can do any job 😂

Could you do a video on what a good portfolio should contain? Just one project or multiple? Is it better to kind of tease with one or have several for a potential employer to look at? Thanks for the content 🙏

Thank you for this advice! Any tips for setting up résumé and LinkedIn when you’re someone who is looking to make a mid-career switch?

Can you give a list of projects to work on as a new front-end developer?

"Just apply for just jobs" doesn't always work for smaller towns or cities. You might mess up your opportunities by going before your ready.

[isaiahdeck]

Might be a dumb question, but typically I hear about a Leetcode grind. Did you practice data structures and algorithms for these interviews? Or webdevs don’t have to be concerned about that?

Hey Dorian, I've got all you say. How long did it take you to get your first job?

In this video you looked like Real Slim Shady 😜

Do you NEED a LinkedIn? Or can I safely ignore it?
