Navigating the Tech Job Landscape

On this week's episode of the podcast, freeCodeCamp founder Quincy Larson interviews Braydon Coyer. He's a software engineer who started building mobile apps in high school – one of which even out-sold Angry Birds for a few days. He dropped out of his computer science degree program once he landed his first web developer job and never went back. We talk about: - Mobile app development VS web app development - Strategies for applying for developer roles - How useful is a CS degree really? - Sane ways to integrate AI into your developer workflows Support for this podcast comes from a grant from Wix Studio.
