Hey MS, what would you say is most important to have on a resume for someone without professional experience yet, but who self-taught for a while and attended a bootcamp?
I know a number of fantastic technologists who got into tech from bootcamps and/or were self-taught developers. The most important thing you can have on a resume is projects that reflect your ability to translate things you learned into real-world prototypes. The second most important thing is to have reviews from people who may have used what you built, to showcase the fact that you know how to work with end users to deliver useful experiences.
One thing I would recommend is to have a blog and a github repo where the latter provides the code and the former documents your learning journey. I can tell you that it helps people discover you when it comes to jobs - and it gives prospective employers a chance to see how you tackle challenges and think through them.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
