Thank you David!

Thank you Litombe!

£6k a yr is virtually nothing

@@nassrnassr4215 In your country maybe not. In Nigeria, the highest paid job is around $400 a month. I make around $500 so I have done well for myself based on my current location

@@nassrnassr4215it is a lot in nigeria tbh

Did u try going for Microsoft pls am asking as per future plans

@@nassrnassr4215in Nigeria is probably a lot

Thank you! Yeah every country differs loads I think. Massive congrats on the new job!

first full time dev job seems fine at 24k, depending on what skills they're asking of course.. especially 2015. A lot has changed since then.. issue we have in the UK is now shelf stacker is on around 21k.. which i totally understand is good because people need it to live on.. but its meant inflation of course, so that 24-25k salary is not anywhere near as good as in 2015 now.. but if you're a rock bottom junior learning the tools of the trade until moving on very soon, then it is not too bad at all really.

@@joecater894 yeah, I agree. I've 10 years of exp and am currently very disappointed with UK's IT job market. I'm still seeing A LOT of companies trying to hire senior with the same salaries from pre covid times. It's like some companies are stuck in time or sleeping under a rock and haven't seem how much cost of living has increased in the UK. I'm seriously thinking about leaving this sinking ship.

What company? If you don't mind

There are online jobs in the USA that pay you £90k. I'm currently doing my A levels and this is my final year... I'm just worried can't we just work for them?

Why UK doesn't pay well for engineers? Compared to US It's dirt low What's the average Surplus disposable income of beginners in UK?

The thing is, I know a lot of people in other jobs that would love to earn the money I do, like for example nurses and nursery workers earning less than £25k a year I think the U.K. just doesn’t pay well for any jobs unless you’re board level wearing a suit & tie, nothing filters down really

@@liamkennysoftware I want to like the UK but its a complete shithole want to move immediately.

Hi, I’m in the same position when I’m at the end of a level 3 apprenticeship as an IT support technician in education. I hit the ceiling ages ago and feel as though I’ve made no progress. How do I go about getting into software? There are no junior roles when I’m looking. Maybe I’m looking in the wrong place.

If youre asking if you need a degree, then you dont. I've never been asked regarding mine

Don't waste your money on a masters lol. Not right now anyway. I would recommend offering your services privately on fiver and other sites and contracting at the same time. You'll learn so much along the way. I don't think a masters will be beneficial to you just yet unless you're mastering all the different languages lol

Thanks Rich! Go for it bro! I am very unware of qa salaries, have a look at glassdoor. Take it with a pinch of salt. Ye US salary are way more over there, but cost of living is a lot higher as long as you live outside of ldn.

you don't learn to become a "full stack dev". It doesn't happen. You gain experience that turns you into one. And frankly, in this day and age, < 5% of all developers could ever be classified as "full stack", going from registers on a CPU all the way to a web browser.

Good luck brother! Wishing you all the best

@@GetToTheCode bro Amen. and thank you very much.. please make video about apartments and where to get nice and cheap apartment in the UK / London. thanks in advance

@@sneigee you can get cheap apartment in the UK.. not London though. A little trick I thought of, which I'll never ever do because I'll probably never live in London, but I often thought.. might be able to get mooring for a boat.. buy a boat for around 20-30k.. and live in it. For example 60 foot mooring in a popular London dockland marina would cost around £6,000 per annum and 28-29k would get quite a nice little cheap sailing boat with cabin. Apparently seems some other people have had a similar idea and have bought canal boats, doing something similar. Of course, the other option is commute from a town in the south, which I can tell you from experience is roughly 65 pounds / day... something like that.. depending. But takes a long time.. Bristol is a good place to go.. or Cambridge, both for tech jobs.

@@joecater894 Oooh l see brother. thanks for the hint.. :)

@@joecater894 bro . l learnt that the Tech Nation are losing funding so they are laying off. hmm cause they are rejection people application for the endorsement .

Per month???

@@user-cj2mx5fr6w per year dude

Go for it Sheena! I dont believe chatGPT will replace us in the near future. Company codebases are too large and complicated for chatGPT to help with. Still need human input for large majority of it. But I would definitely use it a tool to help you get better!

@@GetToTheCode thanks for your reply! I wanted to know your opinion of being self taught? Apprenticeships are very hard to get as they’re competitive, if I taught myself or did courses at home and applied for entry level,do you think being persistent in a job search would eventually land me work?

More than enough ! I will say having a degree doesn't guarantee you a job. It's about how you can prove to them you can code well, through portfolio projects etc

@@GetToTheCode Most definitely. Thanks for the feedback man!

@@GetToTheCode thanks for the reply man, I’m beyond terrible at maths and worst than most when it comes to math. Would a BSc in computing IT and business still get me into software engineering? You can choose to do some software engineering in the degree program alongside business. This is also with the open university.

@@LewisLivingLife you dont need maths for software dev. Theres no maths in it

I am a software engineer here. I have the CS degree. If I am honest with you, in the UK, no one asked me for my degree. What they usually do is to ask algorithm questions during the interview. So it is more to show that you know the subject than having the degree. In Spain thou (I'm from there), it is the first thing that they ask. About the maths, generally speaking, you don't need them. They don't hurt, either.

can you tell me please how much a React js intern get per hour in UK . And how much a MERN stack intern can earn in UK .

bro

@@breezybomb please elaborate

@@___m16 python is pretty good but its not enough to get a DECENT waged job, you'll need to learn java, javascript, and C++ however as long as youre studying minimum 3 hours a day you should be good by the end of the year, 1-2 years of junior level experience and you'll finally make decent cash as a senior developer

Good luck with it man! Unsure of specific companies, but I would consistently apply on LinkedIn, Otta. And get free mentoring on ADLlist. Hope that helps

Hi Dima, thank you! This does sound like a good idea. Thanks for reaching out. I'm new to this youtube thing ahah, but very keen to learn about your experiences. How would you like to go further? Could jump on a call, interview etc. Let me know

@@GetToTheCode Great! It's also new for me :) How about to start from some simple call, and we will see what we can make from it. Please let me know what's the best way to contact you

Sounds great, lets do it. Do you have twitter? Best to have get some messaging going. Can reach out to me at @GetToThe_Code. Or comment below your handle and I can dm you

@Dima Uvarov, I dont have instagram haha. Discord? add me on that and we can chat

It ain't per month.

SWE 1 was on roughly £2-2.1k a month, SWE 2 roughly £2.2-2.3 a month. Hope that helps

@@GetToTheCode No overtimes? Kinda disappointing.

Before tax?
