Getting a job as a junior

Hi everyone.
I have been working as project manager but decided to learn code and currently a junior web developer.
I’m living in Poland, looking for a job: on place or remotely, but so far no success.

Do you have any advice or maybe a job to do for a junior?

hi @UATyroni, your codepen portfolio looks really good - congrats on completing the FCC course!

As far as advice, I’m not exactly sure how things work in EU but in my experience, most jobs are found by networking. Can you join local tech meetups (JS, data viz, web dev etc), and/or join their slack channels? These are both excellent ways to meet people who would know about jobs available in their companies and are great resources to help you find out more about the position so you are better positioned when talking to a recruiter.

Hope that helps.

Thank you very much!)

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Yeah I’ve joined to the all-known to me telegram chats, discord groups, facebook groups. Also become responsible for organizing IT meetings in my city, but still - their result will take time.

I’m collecting advices, recommendations or, again, some offers :slight_smile: Will be grateful for them :slight_smile:

Hello!
You’ve already done many projects!
I looked at some projects - they are not responsive. I think this is a very important point for a serious portfolio.
Good luck!

Thank you very much!
You talk about Codepen projects, not about GH pages?

Yes, about Codepen projects
