Hello,
I'm Alex. Currently working in Conservation and Animal Husbandry but looking to make a switch to Front End and Full Stack Web Dev. I've been taking Codecademy, Scrimba, ZTM and a variety of other learning paths to develop a base of skills.
I hope this challenge will help direct my energy into networking and finding a job (or at least narrowing down the pool of jobs I'd like ot apply to).
Welcome to the community good luck on your journey.
Hey everyone! I'm Tim, a career changing developer (from woodworker/chef). I recently finished The Odin Project Ruby on Rails path and my main strengths in Javascript + React, Ruby + Rails, HTML, and CSS.
I started applying for fullstack / frontend positions at the start of the new year, and, from this Cohort 1 challenge, hope to gain new perspectives on the job search process and get better at networking.
I think my ideal job title is somewhere between Frontend Developer and Software Developer.
Hey all! I'm Rodrigo, ex flight attendant, and in 2020 I lost my job so I'm looking to stat a job in web development.
My main skills are in Front End (I have a background in architecture as well) and in junior/entry level; I would like to improve my self confidence, you know... imposter syndrome.
My ideal jobs is front end developer :)
