tensazangetsu20: Seems like we are in the same bracket. I'm starting a new role in May that should break the that ceiling well. And I like your openness about this. A lot of people will never answer that question (and I understand why) 12 Likes |

tensazangetsu20: My goal for this year is to hit 7,200 from one job monthly. Set an October target for that but I've been hitting stumbling blocks because I'm looking at Devops, Site Reliability or SysAdmin. You have to be super good to hit these. I vex recently and spent some good money building a home lab to get hands on experience. Servers, switches and routers cost o. But na investment 7 Likes |

tensazangetsu20: For some reason which I can't explain, I'm not keen to japa o. I will rather earn close to US salaries here. The life here is less restricted and easier to enjoy here (with money o!) than in the abroad. I'd rather travel to the abroad on short holidays than live there permanently. I don't know why but the abroad no dey trip me I swear. 34 Likes 4 Shares |

tensazangetsu20:The questions must be from medium level I guess, right? My sights are on FAANG and the likes right now. Just need to solve 100 medium and finish Algo Expert's 160 questions. Got the "Coding the interview" book also. And PIE Understanding the pattern of questions is more important than solving 300+ without understanding the pattern 10 Likes 3 Shares |

tensazangetsu20:Well for japa jobs, you don try German Blue Card? It's possible to strike gold with that, although German tax nah die and like in most European countries, they don't pay that high (compared to U.S of course) especially if you are going to be staying in Germany. |
Re: So There Are Devs That Earn Up To 30k USD. by tensazangetsu20(m): 10:23pm On Apr 24, 2022 |
GeneralDae: Oh yeah I only apply to jobs in Germany since it's easier to get a German company to sponsor your visa and it's still the same process. A codility or hackkerank screen. A zoom dsa test and a behavioral interview test finally. That's how I have been getting it o. 5 Likes 1 Share |

tensazangetsu20:In regards to japa, it mustn't necessarily be via a job. You could try the Canadian express entry system and the likes. I'm a junior dev looking to land my first full time role, and I can tell you, within the next 3 years, I go don japa 5 Likes 1 Share |

TheManOfTheYear: Express entry has been suspended and before it was suspended, you needed like 480 points. Now you would definitely need like 500. The same Canada devs have gotten jobs there and there were sponsored. People are getting sponsored the Koko is data structures and algorithms. Once you can pass that you have unlocked a barrier to so many things 5 Likes |

Hannania:That coding interview seems like it is explained in Java, any chance of getting one for a language like JavaScript? |
Re: So There Are Devs That Earn Up To 30k USD. by TheManOfTheYear: 9:45am On Apr 25, 2022 |
tensazangetsu20:it would likely resume in July or so. Well you're right, but the company I'm interviewing with currently, they gave me a take home test which I'm to submit in a month. Afterward, a technical interview. I doubt it would be on DSA, I hope not. I haven't learnt a thing on DSA yet. |
Re: So There Are Devs That Earn Up To 30k USD. by Hannania(m): 9:47am On Apr 25, 2022 |
TheManOfTheYear:Most Interviews are done with "solid" languages like Java, Python and C++. I haven't come across resources for JavaScript. You can pick up python in 2 weeks with previous experience in another language, then start preparing for interviews. Python let's you focus on the logic, and not the syntax. Unlike java or C++ that you have to do both. I'm proficient in the three languages though, but I'm putting all my strength on java and Python. C++ shouldn't be a problem since I have java proficiency. A friend of mine that got into Meta last month did his interview in C++. The interviewers made it explicit that he had to choose form Java, Python, C or C++. He's now in London. All those Unilag guys with doings �� Those languages are were the big bucks are. 11 Likes 3 Shares |
