    What programming languages did you learn in depth for your first jobs and what areas did you invest yourself in (Back-end, Machine Learning, Front-end, QA..)? And what would say after learning you first programming languages were the main technologies you learned to get your current job?

      Hey Moxzie, so I learned C# for the front end and Swift for the back end, but if I could go back I would recommend learning Bash for both. Thanks for the question.

    Great session......really insightful, you can see how dedicated and passionate she is about her work! I love her advice about thinking ahead regarding income to location costs before taking on a new role.

    Great Podcast, I enjoyed listening to this!!
    Just to let you know, I just started learning how to Code and Im 3 weeks in, went through HTML and Im learning CSS now, trying to learn stuff from different websites .
    Im thinking to learn stuff for about a year and try to see if I can get a job as Junior fullstack dev.
    2 questions though If I could ask - Lets say I apply for a job and if I have no experience working in Tech Industry, should I even include jobs that I had that are not related to the tech field?
    Second question is should I go through Leetcode questions if I go interview for my first job or they dont really check that?
    Though I will ask that, great podcast one more time 🙂

    • @TheSoulCrisis

      I can advise ya some on those aspects.
      1) Include non-tech roles ONLY if they include one or more transferrable skills to the position being applied for (for example if you worked a customer service role and you'll be interfacing with clients, worked at a landscaping company and applying for a landscaping company site developer job, etc.).
      2) You should be partitioning time between production grade projects (or contributing to open source software) while practicing technical questions for technical interviews (because they are so common you will run into them). If you're not interested in big tech, do more projects and study the stack for the roles you'll be applying for. The problem with just doing projects is you can get caught really off guard by leetcode style questions with no preparation.

    I just finished watching the broadcast. First, don't mention how much money she makes. You are potentially putting a target on her back, since it won't be hard to find people's homes if you know how to search by wage the area . Also, congrats to Nina on the job it sounds interesting

      I agree , it’s better to give a range that the position makes rather than to state what she makes specifically .
      I’m suprised how many young people don’t comprehend the danger of telling people on social media their income .

      All the financial channels state their incomes when interviewing people. She is fine

      @@salty-casper3109 you have said nothing wise. Literally anyone can be a victim of cyber crime. People are more of a target on Instagram than she is just merely stating what she makes on a video
      Even if she did not state what she made, her job title alone makes it obvious she makes 6 figures

      This is common to talk about in tech tbh. You see it all over UA-cam. She will be fine lol.

    • @TheSoulCrisis
      @TheSoulCrisis 10 місяців тому

      People make different incomes all over the country, no one will know her address unless she puts THAT out there in some way. There are people that talk about their own incomes in several videos, she can mention a range though if she thinks companies might misuse or abuse the information to mess with salaries themselves (or prefers it).

      tbh its like that she complains of being a minority that is privileged in the field. just like if you were a man in a nursing school ull be privileged. most of faang have quotas to hire women

      they dont have quotas. top tier companies literally cant afford to hire nonqualified applicants since they have to stay competitive. @@AlternativeTakes
