3 Things I Learned at My First Software Engineering Job

[@heysosathedev]

FRIENDS! I'm back at it again. This first year as a software engineer has been a whirlwind for me but I've learned so much and I'm so grateful to be doing work I love. I'm also really glad I get to share my experience with all of you! Let me know if you have any questions below :) Also, here's the link to my engineering coaching services that I was talking about:www.buymeacoffee.com/sosa It's for anyone who wants more tailored one-on-one advice or help when it comes to engineering or college in general. Looking forward to meeting you!

3 things I learnt. Just start. Keep learning. Never give up.

[@heysosathedev]

Very true!

[@SajeelCodes]

You don't get comments. What's the reason? Is your channel just starting out on this platform?

[@heysosathedev]

@@SajeelCodes Lol yea I guess. I just started a couple months ago and I'm not very consistent with putting out videos because of work and other obligations. I don't really stress about the comments or views though. I just want to put information out there and have it available for anyone who needs it.

Sosa I really appreciate you, as a fellow black girl doing an IT degree, it’s really great to see you doing your thing :) I don’t really comment on videos but just know I am watching hun from the uk 🇬🇧

[@marquesengram4259]

Sosu, as a person who have been doing software engineering for 20 years, use a debugger to go through your co-workers' code to understand it and use a debugger to find out the flow of the code you are writing. I believe these tips will help you as a Software Engineer.

What job title do you search for right out of college? Most of the time when I see Software Engineer jobs you need at least 3 years of experience, so what about when it's your first job? Do people usually start as a software developer and then grow to become a software engineer?

[@heysosathedev]

I searched for a bunch of different titles, mainly software engineer and software developer because a lot of companies use them interchangeably. So you'd start as either. It just depends on what the company calls it. When you do your search, look for "New grad software engineer/developer". Those are positions reserved for students right out of college.
