Conscientious: reviewing own code, proactively helping team members
3: ✨Strategies to get hired
Apply to a company you know personally
The advantage is you could talk about the product from the user’s perspective.Apply actively to unpopular companies
You are more likely to get into the resume phase due to the lesser number of people applying to these industries.Apply to hidden gems
Hidden gem companies (local/regional companies) usually have no marketing budget. They need a software engineer to maintain their products.
