my biggest advice if you’re looking to stand out #juniordeveloper #juniordev #coding

The one thing I hear from engineering leaders is that they don't have time to hold people's hands. So you come with 15 years of sales experience, like you're a professional, like you don't need your hand held, like you're a go-getter, right? And I think that's the biggest thing people want when they hire a junior developer. Yes. They want somebody who's asked questions, who can go to them and be like, hey, before, you know, be proactive and not just sit there. Also, communication skills are huge. Why did you build this is another really big reason in an interview that people want to see. Junior developers— I've talked to a lot of hiring managers about this. They say junior developers, when they ask them why they did that, they don't know how to answer it.
