the possibility of leaving tech all together w/ sr dev advocate chris demars
guest: chris demars, senior developer advocate, digitalocean
- expect job searching to feel like a second job, applying 10-15 roles a day when unemployed
- track every application in a notion or spreadsheet with role type, stage, and date applied
- be direct and specific in interviews about what you do and how you will benefit the company
- build a clear personal brand so people know what to expect from you at conferences and in interviews
- timing matters as much as skill, since hiring speed depends on company budgets, fiscal calendars and holidays
