First post here, I’m hoping to get some advice in relation to a new job which I secured before the lock-down phase here in my country. I’ll be starting by the end of this month or early next month all going well. I’ve spent the lock-down learning as much JavaScript as possible. I have a software engineering degree prior to self-learning but struggle massively with self doubt and my ability to remember things.
Job Requirements:
• Any Javascript experience , but will look at any programming language
• AWS experience a plus
• Previous experience working on greenfield projects, not really interested in someone
working on legacy projects fixing bugs etc.
• Someone enthusiastic about coding
• Willing to learn and coached by Senior Engineers
• Ideally someone young
I secured the job, so I definitely meet the requirements. As mentioned I’ve spent about 54 consecutive days learning JavaScript and Node.js. I committed to the 100 Days of Code challenge to keep myself motivated. I plan to do some AWS learning this month. I’ve attached some information about the company below, if there is anything you can suggest would be good for me to read into, please let me know Thanks!
