Thanks for going in-depth on your progress within the company as a junior dev, it's nice to understand how they slowly integrate you, and the practices being used. Great video!

Thanks Steph. Am really inspired and pumped up for this journey 👍👍

Great video, stephf. A really good review of what a Junior Developer may be expected to do at a small company.

thanks so much for the video I was really anxious for the first months when I will get a job and now I feel really comfortable

What a kind soul you are. Thanks so much for this insight.

Thanks Steph! I just found your videos and I really like it! 🎉 I just got my first SE Job in Atlanta as well and watching your videos is helping me to set expectations 😊

I love how you went into details about your position! It really helps to understand the process from an idea to deployment ! Thank you for this😊

This was very honest and concise. Keep going! =)

Super helpful, thank you!

seems like a great company - you are on your way!

This is inspiring. I just graduated from a bootcamp and I am confident in my skills yet I am nervous. Same, we learned React (I struggled through React. lol. It was more so about component design than anything else. I have an OOP academic background so I am used to classes with a clear design.) and backend technologies. But I had fun. On the job hunt now, looking for a junior dev role. I am willing to move anywhere (as long as it's not in the middle of no where. lol), and they have some type of night life. Thank you for your honesty. Wish me luck.

Great channel thank you for every post

Glimpse of hope, as I'm in a bootcamp too and fingers crossed when I'm done I get to have the opportunity to experience that..🤞

Wow, i just put myself in her shoes and it takes a lot to just stare in a camera and talk at length to the camera and make your listeners feeling as if your talking directly to them. Thats the vibe I get at least, like shes in the room by herself and sometimesI think people dont think about that because people like her make you feel like its personal so I just wanna say thank you for your heart and kindness and taking the time to prepare wanna be devs for the realworld. Your apppreciated dearly!!! Even if this is the only video of yours I might watch just due to the algorithm lol 😂 Im still subscribing

soooo helpfullll thank youuuuu

Thank you for the video! I’m starting a Bootcamp soon and your posts have been very helpful.

Great info! Thanks for sharing.

Really useful information. Thanks for posting

Well done. Thanks

Sounds amazing. Ive been working with cnc machines for 18 years and now started learning python this Summer. Everything you say makes so much sense. Doing this for "lifestyle" will never work but the feeling of learning and when something get solved is allready so much fun for me. Hope i can switch my work to software sometime in future. Also many people dont understand how exhausting it can be to actually think all the time at work.. and i dont mean by just think what you are doing but REALLY think when fixing bugs or making programs

I was expecting the first task you did to be "centering a div" HAHAHA btw love this video!

This really helps ! Thanks for sharing!!

lving the life!!

I also am down the boot camp journey trying to break into my first development role. Great inspiration & information! 👍

Thank you for making this informative video on what a junior developer actually does. I was specifically interested in what work and tickets are usually assigned. No one usually mentions this in their videos. I am about to finish a coding bootcamp/programme in my country at the end of the year. This helps put me at ease for what to expect for my first developer role.

just stumbled upom your channel & I wanna say, please keep posting

ty for sharing

As an SDE intern at Amazon, we do design, development, and testing.

I am graduate from a coding bootcamp in London,UK and i think this video is the best video for people who want to learn how is the first position in a company as a junior developer!Thank you steph and i cant wait for more videos from you.

I want to become a software developer .. but i dont know if i want to go 2 years for de associate degree of swd or to do a bootcamp.

Is the company you are working at in atl looking to hire? Ill finish my bootcamp in June and would like to find a great place to work as my first job and you seem very happy!!

Whats the name of this software you are using to showcase a hierarchy? 2:54

how did you land a fully remote junior dev role? I keep getting told that I need to be hybrid minimum so they can “mentor” me in the office 🙄😒

Just scored a junior dev position at my job in Atlanta as well. Self taught for the win 😎

If you can deal with banging your head and debugging code and keep going without breaking your screen and keyboard, youre good homie 😂

Your videos always motivating me! Week 3 inbound in my bootcamp! (might need you to rec me for ATL jobs too when I'm done LOL)

How did u get an junior software engineer in English ❤?

What bootcamps are the best one to join for software engineer??

Could u share ur resume format please? I’m not getting responses despite having a degree in cs and nearly two years of exp working as a java dev

🔥

Hi Steph, I see you are doing well in regards of your sleep. Can you please let me know if you cured your insomnia ?

Please link for your mouse

This is a pretty good video that tells me what it’s like. Are you from Hawaii or have family in Hawaii?

"Just take a couple months just to learn Angular" Wow, that's so so different that what juniors are expected to do where I work. They are supposed to jump directly in whatever current product / project codebase we are working on and contribute such as developping new (small) features, that could end up in production for the next release. Different worlds.

I will be starting my first Junior Role on May 2nd. I be honest I'm feeling very nervous 😬

How much does a junior developer make at your company?

What does career growth look like as a developer in your company? Do you expect to go into management down the road or stay as an IC?

Congratulations being a junior developer. Working on getting in the industry myself.

Do you do CI/CD based on your life cycle? Certainly, it is a cool when you have a bucket of tasks and you can pick any and start working on.

Did you get a CS degree or take a coding bootcamp? I’m starting a bootcamp next month that’s 12 weeks, I’m nervous but excited lol

Very good video, i have been working as a front end developer for 1 yr and 8 months but still regard myself as a junior. I could quite relate when you said how you spent your first few months finishing small tasks and getting familiar with the codebase, but later get more and more comfortable with coding. Anyway, keep on making more great contents~

Got the job offer yesterday. 6 months learning how to code. Marami akong natutunan sayo maam. Salamuch!

Self taught was engineer here, have always thought about going into development. I have swift under my belt but just don't know if I want to deal with the on call most devs have.

I just started a 100% remote job at a mid-sized company too and this is such a genuine and real explanation - very realistic compared to working at Google! lol

Do you work at FDM?

Thanks for sharing your experience. I appreciated the part when you talked about the organisation of tickets. Surprising though is the tasks you did when you started, it sounds like achieving tasks for someone starting to learn how to code. In Europe, the market for software JD is extremely competitive, you won't get a job if you don't have previous experience. Your CV is automatically scanned by a software, if you don't have exp, you will be rejected. Yes, it's stupid af, you could be Einstein with no exp and rejected. The problem are also the coding bootcamp schools who send thousands of JD who are seeking for a job because they followed a 6 weeks bootcamp.

well from way she speaks about the technical side of things she would be the most junior i've ever seen

You need to be a good self learner being a software engineer, because technologies get changed ever 2-3 years.

I think FAANG is overrated

this girl is the painful thing about my job

Very helpful! Thank you for this video!
