DonTheDeveloper Podcast

When I shared the opportunity to offer a few FAANG level mock interviews, a current coding bootcamp student decided to throw his hat into the ring and try it out. This is the 2nd episode (out of 3) with these mock interview coding challenges. This one ended up turning into more of a coaching session with tons of great advice for other aspiring developers as well. I hope this helps.

I invited on a WordPress developer of 3 years to tackle an entry-level FAANG mock interview in JavaScript. Quite frankly, most people are too scared to come on to do this, so kudos to Milos for being willing to tackle these problems on video! The interviewer, Daniel, was a software engineer at Microsoft for 10 years and at Facebook for 7 years. It sounded like this type of challenge was more in line with Facebook's style, but hopefully, this gives you some insight into what challenges are like at these companies.We will be doing 3 mock interviews in total with these problems. This episode is with the first brave soul.

I've had several people ask me how they could become a mobile developer so I invited on Dave, an iOS Developer, to share his journey. While he attended a coding bootcamp, he also laid out a plan for how he would go about it with the self-taught path as well.  I hope this helps!Dave Jacobsen (guest):Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidjacobsen1 Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/DaveJacobseniOS---------------------------------------------------🔥 Webdev Career Help - https://calendly.com/donthedeveloper/coaching🎮 Join Discord - https://discord.gg/TpQe2k8Ab3❤️ Support What I Do - https://www.patreon.com/donthedeveloperDisclaimer: Some product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something I'll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. ===========================WEBDEV COURSES I HIGHLY RECOMMEND:🎓 Learn Frontend - Scrimba (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-frontend-developer-career-path-c0j?via=donthedeveloper🎓 Learn Backend - Boot.dev (25% off): https://boot.dev/?promo=DONTHEDEVELOPER - Get 25% off your first payment with code "DONTHEDEVELOPER"🎓 Already Experienced?

IMPOSTER SYNDROME is everywhere. You cannot hide from it. You will experience it at some point. I invited on a few people to talk through some of their own experiences with imposter syndrome as they were trying to become developers (or focus on data). If you feel like you just aren't capable of becoming a developer, I PROMISE you that you're not alone. Hopefully, there's a story or piece of wisdom here that'll resonate with you.Russell Anderson (guest):Twitter - https://mobile.twitter.com/russbot250 Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/russell-a-5201a7159 Eric Jiang (guest): Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/eric-jiang-855a16107 Sydney Romero (guest): Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sydney-romero---------------------------------------------------🔥 Webdev Career Help - https://calendly.com/donthedeveloper/coaching🎮 Join Discord - https://discord.gg/TpQe2k8Ab3❤️ Support What I Do - https://www.patreon.com/donthedeveloperDisclaimer: Some product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something I'll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. ===========================WEBDEV COURSES I HIGHLY RECOMMEND:🎓 Learn Frontend - Scrimba (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-frontend-developer-career-path-c0j?via=donthedeveloper🎓 Learn Backend - Boot.dev (25% off): https://boot.dev/?promo=DONTHEDEVELOPER - Get 25% off your first payment with code "DONTHEDEVELOPER"🎓 Already Experienced?

I invited on 3 recent graduates of App Academy to share their experiences. These types of review episodes are aimed at getting past the marketing fluff of each coding bootcamp, and diving into real, authentic experiences from 3 real graduates. I was completely wrong about App Academy. This ended up being one hell of a conversation.

I invited on 3 recent graduates of the coding bootcamp, Flatiron School, to share their experiences at the program.
