Really helpful! and @Mehul you said right "selling your self is an art", as time passed I realized that your so much projects or how many techs you know that doesn't matter, however matters that how you present yourself.

Hey mehul, Thanks for this i am currently working on my portfolio and this is just i need it. I wasn't sure what should i put in my portfolio and other things. I was too confused about it. Now i do have some picture to work on it.

Hi, thank you for the video!

Do you think adding in-depth articles(i.e about how certain tools work under the hood) on the resume would add value to it? Also, would a high Stack Overflow reputation help as well?

Thanks!

Do you have an idea of when your Front End certification will be available ? Thanks

Lmfao the auto generated subs are in Korean tf. Great content btw. I'm on a spree consuming your content since a couple of days, saving to a playlist for when the time comes 👍.

Hi, do I also have to make the portfolio projects live or just pushing to github is enough?

[ridl]

do you planning some ci/cd tutorials ?

[mdridoy-efpw]

is there a chance of my resume being selected when I don't have a cs degree or no previous work experience? (I am constantly learning web dev for more than a year and have a lot of projects to showcase)

[khoroshoigra]

Sir could I legally attach a previous project from my client ??

[vinay]

Ohoo man. What kind of crap your listing. Man please list things properly.

1. You don’t need a website, you can use github pages or you can host static webpages in github.
2. Instead of creating small 200 projects build solid 3 projects. Focus on your career. If it’s full stack build some website. If you are backend developer build solid API’s with open api or swagger
3. Create good LinkedIn profile and ask your friends or university professor recommendations
4. During interview speak frankly, if you don’t know AWS tell them unfortunately I couldn’t get chance to work but I can learn quickly(this shows your interest)
5. Prepare your interview answers in star format
