For Developers, How Did You Get Your First Remote Job And What Was The Pay. by Hannania(m): 10:22am On Dec 26, 2021 |
Hello Developers in the house. Seeing that a lot of aspiring developers are here, I thought of opening this thread to give our experienced Developers a chance to share and inspire aspiring developers through the following questions been answered. 1. How long did it take you to learn, before you got your first remote job 2. What was the pay 3. Finally, give some times on things you'd do differently if you were to start all over. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

Hannania: Skip: You can learn from being an intermediate in 3 months. If you're an absolute beginner, 6 months or more will do. Hannania: Well, my first remote gig was 1/4 of a mil /month naira equivalent. It was a short 2 and half month process. Hannania: I would never have learnt C# or .Net. I would stick to JavaScript and all the shades of it. Then, I'll adopt Google Dev Ecosystem rather than Microsoft. 62 Likes 9 Shares |

Ovaltine:Wow, that's quite interesting. Never thought the remote gig would be 1/4 of a million. Seems like it was an internship. Overall, that's a nice step process. For the stack field, seems Node.js(MERN stack) is king. I'm into Java though, trying to wrap my head around Spring Framework, Hibernate and SQL. That's enough for my back end path for now. Got a Gig offer recently, but I rejected it because my Learning is not up to "job" level yet. By March, I would pitch again. Thanks for your feedback sir. 29 Likes 1 Share |

A good guy I met of Twitter to discuss about my life with. After keeping our friendship for some time, he recommended to someone who recommended me to someone in the US to start online programming tutorial for some selected kids. At first, it seems hard but now, that's what I'm feeding on. I'm not longer there.... But I used that experience to start up my own little online tutoring.

dauddy97:Another angle Entirely. That's where the valuable Networking skill comes into play. If you don't mind, would you pinpoint approaches to connect and maintain such relationships online? As there are various means, yours would surely be different. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

AustainoPatrick:Try to have a good LinkedIn profile, and apply for available jobs. For my strategy, when I so see an opening, I add the recruiter to my connections(using LinkedIn premium) then message them on my interest to work with their firm and how well my profile fits. For the Top paying one's, be ready to solve data structures and algorithms problems.. 16 Likes 4 Shares |

Quite a number of options. 1. LinkedIn : For me, i prefer applying on the company's career page directly. So after seeing the ad on Linkedln, i go the company website, view their career page and apply from there. Atleast to avoid Linkedln (man in the middle). Most times, the career page is under "About Us" or on the footer. Sometimes on its own though. 2. Here is a list of companies Hiring at least in Europe (i compiled it in 2020) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WMjwxMXcsIycNxcAfxzdiGtEcRKsRs6izIRZ-O15IbQ/edit?usp=sharing Hopefully it helps someone. NB: it is not an exhaustive list. Open the careers page, check for roles you fit in, apply directly on the career's page. 3. Be open for interviews, 4. You can even relocate to Europe based on job once you are employed. Pretty easy. 5. Recommendations from friends and Good luck 27 Likes 14 Shares |
