lunch it virtual networking group-may edition
with taylor desseyn (solo)
- never stop learning after a bootcamp, picking up projects keeps opportunities and growth coming
- never stop meeting people, most roles come through a personal connection rather than cold applying
- keep a blog or code pen of your work, even small posts can unlock career opportunities years later
- build personal projects or do free work to show initiative, the journey matters more than the finished product
- when networking on linkedin, check in on someone genuinely instead of pitching yourself, people respond better to that
