The feedback was great, but they need someone more experienced

July 18, 2020

The feedback was great.

They loved your code.

But, they need someone more experienced.

Tough.

What happened?

For a manager with 30 years in software,

a three months Bootcamp doesn’t cut it.

You lack certifications.

And experience.

My two cents?

  1. Avoid companies that care about certifications.
  2. Get involved in bigger projects.


And do it now.

Don’t blame companies.
Don’t blame recruiters.
Don’t blame yourself.

Just code.



Stay cool,
Dragos
