personally I think it eventually boils down to being selective of the music one listen to, Im really not a big fan of American rap music but I do agree that there are some songs of that genre that are nice, same with Afrobeats which I listen to alot, but not all Afrobeats songs goes, I even don’t listen songs from some artists just because of the type of music they make.

theophilly20@gmail.com thanks man

You know how to do this thing for sure,

next time you should work with a designer.

end of the year party?

I take up to five cups of coffee daily

Berger's have money

It would be great

I don't know your current approach but I would suggest that you store the images in AWS S3 bucket or cloudinary, then save the path in the mongodb database, it would be easier this way

tutudesz:

coming from a guy that did this

Nice tutorial on an interesting subject

I am soo happy for this dude mehn!

Nice work, love the design

Entry level devs are getting employed everyday however, you'll need to put in a lot of effort in the application process. Assuming there's no question about your development skill and your job application tools are top notch, you still have to develop a tough skin for rejection because most companies would still not trust you because you have no experience. But be comforted with the fact that it is only hardest when you're just starting out without experience.

My advice to most beginners without experience (assuming the conditions I mentioned above are met) is to increase the number of QUALITY job applications they send out. At this stage, it may be down to a game of numbers.

Myself as an example, when I started out, my first 100 to 200 applications were rejected. Some would not even reach HR because companies use automated screening tools to screen out resumes that failed some key words based on the advertised role.

Once I got my first response/interview/chat/technical assessment e.t.c, I knew how to gauge the range of how many applications/rejections I needed to send out to receive a positive feedback(I learnt this during my banking days). I just targeted that number of applications per day. Thanks to LinkedIn, I filtered the type of jobs I wanted and experience level required and I started applying. On a particular day, I sent out up to 50 applications in 10 minutes( I dont advise this but I was desperate). I targeted ONLY foreign companies. Also, be ready for algorithm and data structures test as a beginner. They just want to be sure about the risk they want to take on you.


Once you break that jinx of getting your first job, it becomes really easy. Depending on your experience, recruiters may even start messaging you privately and try to poach you away from your current employer. The interview becomes a mere chat. Nothing like tests e.t c.

But the whole hassle is worth it. Even if you're paid $10/hr working 40hrs per week, it's not a terrible start.

Now this is how to advice/encourage somebody.

Thanks for the response, even though it's not me that asked for it.

It's has benefited me also

Very bad

Hdhd

This is amazing man, continue putting in work

Auxigen:

How does insecurity relates to the nonsense you put up there?


You can't possibly assume that poverty has a place around rich minds....

No amount of confidence can erase ones deepest mind that tells you that you are poor and should do something about it rather than pursue women....

Fact bro

Jas80:
Wow.... awesome man

thank you very much bro

You don kill am now, your eye don come down

Your concept is nice, and I can only imagine the amount of work you've put into this. I would suggest you work with a designer

Geesanni:
Buzz me

I have sent you a mail sir.

I really don't know

I'm a React js developer and I'm in dire need of a job, I also work with Node js

You do not understand anything about me, so shut up. Then follow the help if you see it as help. Go on. So, in your own imagination, I sounded frustrated? I that is using you guys to cruise. Hahahhahah. So, you call this frustration? O boy! I have said it...you programmers are one way traffic. Even to turn bad situation to your advantage is a big issue for you. Na to sit on computer you all know. Ok ooo. But I am amazed, did I insult you initially? Read what the guy you are defending wrote....direct insults..did I tell him that? Even you gave me direct insults. Lol. But as a guy man, i will still flow. So, why are you so pained?

If you read what that boy wrote initially...hmmm

Well, let me advise you...a man looking for a way out don't act like you. You suppose to be neutral. If you had been patient, you would have got the history btw us. This is a virtue in CEOs. It is why I keep telling you kids that you have a long way to go in this life. I'm leaving your thread. That boy is nasty (first time I will use terrible words on him. And you are nasty too.

Since you see his tip as a good help, then follow him. Truth is bitter.

Goodluck!

I don't care what advice you bringing

You don't come here and insult people trying to contribute too, plus what he said is as valid as yours.

PeaceJoyLove:

And you too want to "fast follow" the twitter scheduled app guy? Do you know thousands of hungry programmers wanting or trying to do what he did? Just imagine this terrible advice of that self acclaimed successful so called programmer.

You too think. You want innovative suggestions, and you step in a programming section. If that twitter scheduling app is still the joker after one person has done it, would the guy mention it? Would he not be doing it himself? An innovative brain doesnt do what others have done.

Also, think deeply, who will ever share with you what exactly you must do to "blow"? It amazes me how programmers think. Bro, you are in a long thing.

Follow my thread and learn how to think intuitively. No one will ever tell you waht to do. You will have to position yourself where people will come with their ideas. And you will start shortlisting what you want.

Who tells you that you cannot "blow" in Nigeria? I laugh seriously. You all want to develop apps and programs for services based companies when our economy is emerging. Many areas you can think of. But you must work harder. You dont have the skill of researching business trends and it is working against you. It is why your skill is not making you money.

You are asking failures to direct you. Lol. Of course, you can get good technical advice here but business idea? you better move to people who know it well. Asking business idea in a programming section is unwise.

Goodluck!

I understand you are trying to help bro, and thanks I get ur point.

But no one has said nothing to set you off like this, you sound bitter and frustrated. You even called people who were trying to help failures. C'mon bro.

I wasn't even asking for a mapped out business plan, or anything close to innovative business idea. It could just be suggestions about newly emerging markets or something like that.

before you became all that now I believe you at some might have even ask questions like this

Karleb:
Somebody built an app that schedule tweets called feedhive on Twitter and it blew.

The app is not upto a year and it's already generating money for the owner.

Let me stress that, he owner gave the app a good PR. He posts at least once a day using his personal Twitter account and the app's Twitter account.
He built it one functionality at a time.

Try to think from a user/non developer POV before creating the app.

The idea doesn't have to be unique sha, you can do an existing app in your own way, it doesn't even have to be better.

Also, make it free or very cheap at first and give it a lot of PR.

I sabi the guy, I'm following him on twitter sef

Thank you boss, trying to put this energy into something

tensazangetsu20:
Please don't restrict yourself to the Nigerian market. Think globally. Nigerians haven't eaten.

Thank you boss

Thanks for opening this thread.

So the thing is that, I think this month or so makes it a year or I started software development, and so far I have learnt React, Redux, Node Js, Redux, react native, SASS and some others. All to Enterprise level

I need suggestions on what SAAS product I can build for the Nigerian market

I will really appreciate suggestions.
