Included links for the profiles to be mentioned below.
I never thought I’d be posting here but I’m sure happy I am.
So yesterday I got an interview for a position as a full stack web dev and today I got an email saying I got the job.
Things I did that helped me to land the job:
Advanced courses (lots of them). This helped me get deep knowledge of the tools and technologies I use. Certificates are a plus. (My Udemy Profile )
Build a nice well-formatted resume. I spent a week doing research on how to build a good resume, event spent $ on a resume builder.
Prep for the interview process. Asking key questions can make it or break it.
Have a GitHub account with projects to showcase. (My GitHub Account )
Have a personal website with projects to showcase. (My Personal Website )
Example of questions:
What are the day to day responsibilities of the position?
How’s the culture?
Where’s the company heading in 5 years?
Are there career paths?
Good luck and happy coding!

Checkout the post update.
More than asking me to code, they asked me technical questions.
From what I can remember, these are some:
Where do scripts go? (Depends if the script needs to be loaded before the body. Usually before the closing body tag)
Difference between == and === (one does type coercion)
Difference between SQL and No-SQL.
What does it mean for a database to be a relational database?
For courses, check the post update.
Very important advice. Thank you!
Wow I got 3/4 of those same questions:
