    Here's how to actually become a better software engineer:
    - Learn your tools, not just using them but how do they work BTS.
    - Learn to test and write clean code.
    - Leetcode, it'll make you a better problem solver, and think abstract.
    - Explore open source code to learn patterns, bedt practices.
    - RTFM.
    - Learn concepts by building projects.

    Hello Sajjaad! Firstly, thank you for this amazing video. It truly seems like great advice. I wanted to get your opinion about something. I am a final year software engineering student who has only focused on university material so far. Unfortunately I realised a bit late that I need to code more on my own and that school doesn't teach you everything 😂😂. But now I am in duality whether to focus on studying additional materials to get better at coding and build some good projects for my portfolio or to focus more on getting a job with what I already know. What would you do in this scenario?

    • @SajjaadKhader
      @SajjaadKhader  Місяць тому +2

      That is a tough one - I'd say start focusing on building a portfolio and continue your learning on the side. Try with a personal portfolio website paired with a full stack web applications, that should set you in the right direction.

      1. Click on one of the courses that are part of the specialization.
      2. On the specific courses page, such as "Prompt Engineering for ChatGPT", click Enroll.
      3. Choose one of the specializations from the dropdown such as "Prompt Engineering Specialization", and click Next.
      4. Finally at the bottom of the modal click the "Audit" link.
