Hey Tiff, been following you for about a year now. Just wanted to say thank you for making awesome videos. I just got my first SWE job! I start in September!

[@TiffInTech]

This made my day! Congrats!!!

[@iViktor87]

Turtles ninja !! 🐢🐸🥷😁

[@TiffInTech]

Exactly!!!

[@software-sage]

Best way to get started is to build projects and talk about the projects with other programmers and recruiters. Someone will notice your efforts if you do it long enough.

[@TiffInTech]

Yup! Just gotta start!!

[@quintinbowman7993]

Fave music, Lofi ChillHop

[@TiffInTech]

nice!! That is one I listen to often as well while working

[@HueCodes]

Finally Q&A video 😄

[@TiffInTech]

long overdue!! :D

[@dubaifatimaali]

Tiff has always some good advice. But I would recommend free lancing rather than working in an company. :D

[@TiffInTech]

Fair enough!

As a software developer, have you seen a growth or progression in your typing skills (from when you began to now)?

[@TiffInTech]

yes forsure - I am a much quicker typer as I am always on the keyboard

[@edwardwilliams2564]

Instrumental or Dubstep is mine. Skrillex is really good. DJ S3LR is as well.

[@avader5]

I like your name I remember in the 90's coding fax/ answering machine software for a 4 line ISA board, anyway of course we would store the files in TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) the industry standard at the time.

[@TiffInTech]

haha this is true!

Hi Tiff……how much can you make from working outside of the US as a freelancer and how would you go about it?

[@TiffInTech]

it varies greatly! I would checkout levels.fyi they have salary breakdowns. It isnt for freelancers though as that varies based on your work, clients, skills etc...

[@louistafoya1288]

:O I listen to uplifting emotional trance. When I am working on my coding homework or a project I listen to Future Garage work music. The one with the robot looking at the hologram is my favorite!

[@TiffInTech]

nice!! That sounds like it would be good to listen to while focusing!

[@markbenson488]

I love your Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles shirt, it's awesome!

[@TiffInTech]

making something for someone who wanna become iOS dev

[@TiffInTech]

There is so many great resources to learn from. I would suggest even searching tutorials on youtube or udemy!!

[@aa-mundo]

TMNT! Yeah 🐢

[@TiffInTech]

You know it!

[@mohibquadri4053]

Superb i am thinking about starting online entrepreneur journey as construction design engineer so what advice would you give to keep in mind to be successful at it - like any book recommendations or practical tips to get those initial clients for projects without wasting time..

[@TiffInTech]

That is great to hear! I think networking is key - even joining online groups through discord or slack that focus on your area. Also, goes without saying, having a strong portfolio!

Hi Tiff. I’m Mbali from South Africa, I love watching your channel. I’m currently in my last year studying software development. I’ve been applying for internships and jobs. I’ve been told my resume looks great and cover letter is clear, I’ve created so many profile pages(eg. LinkedIn, Indeed etc.) yet I’ve been getting declined. Would you advise I finish school before applying or do you have any tips to share to help me secure a job?

[@BeginnerWoodWorker78]

How advanced does your gear need to be?

[@catz2317]

What was your Python project that you put in a portfoilio (or you would put in a portfolio)? I would like to make some backend project because I have to show something, but don't know what.

[@TiffInTech]

I have a video on python project ideas a few videos back that will answer this!

[@catz2317]

@@TiffInTech Thank you so much for answering 🙂 I'll search for that video 🤗

Hi, I am from a Mechanical Engineering background and looking for a career change I want to enter into the Data Analytics field so I wanted to ask if I should learn SAS or start with SQL? And if SAS what future career growth?

[@Bigoldgrizzly1337]

Consider looking into luke barousse's channel. It has more to do with data analytics than software.

[@KIRITO-xo6qh]

@@Bigoldgrizzly1337 I will definitely look into it. Thank you.

[@madaotee]

Hi, I am not graduated and my major is not the tech field. I recently land a tech job in small company (with not much focus on tech) and been working there for about 2 months now. To me its blessing to get a tech job with my background but I feel like I am learning nothing and all the works are very basic but the project I currently working in is very horribly coded that it stress me out. Also the working hour is so tight I couldn't learn anything since I work here. I feel like I could do much more so I want to quit this job start another job hunt. But it really really hard to get tech job with my background and also without experience. Right now I am really struggling to decide to keep working at this dead end job or risk it for improvement. Sorry if my comment is too long to read and hard to understand but I hope you would give me some advice. thanks

Anyone who is new to Tech or switching from Non tech to Tech (like me), freelancing full-time is not the thing to do. If any so called Freelancing or Tech "Guru" preached you that, its a truckload of ga***ge....unless you are building something of your own.
