Your excitement is contagious, Amy! Thank you for being a part of Scrimba’s Bootcamp and our Frontend Developer Career Path. Your passion will take you far and we have no doubt that you will indeed transition into a full time instructor 🎉
Jamie
Meet Jamie Baker 🇬🇧!
Jamie is a recently hired new developer who used to be a butcher. Recently, he took the plunge to leave his growing business and, at 38, start his first front-end developer job after only interviewing at one company!
This is a story of perseverance and knowing when to niche down. You will hear how Jamie started coding, why he loves CSS, and how he fell in love with Shopify. You will learn why you should be enthusiastic about the tech you're working with and why if you're sending too many resumes, that might mean you need a better strategy.
Jamie also talks about his typical day as a developer working at a Shopify agency, why honesty and people skills matter, and why you shouldn't sleep on domain knowledge. There are also some fun quick-fire questions!

Komrad
Soon you will look around, and find that mountain of production level code has become a molehill for you! What intimidates you now will prove the be your areas of strength as you freelance and grow into those future projects and full time positions…One code at a time. 🧨
Christine
One thing any volunteer, intern, apprentice will tell you is that paid or not…opportunity opens doors for both experience and exposure, Christine. What an awesome chance to gain both, while exercising everything you have learned! Pivots often lead to purpose. So do your thing!💥
Emre
Meet Emre Albayrak 🇹🇷!
Emre is a classical pianist from Turkey who decided to change careers, so he trained as a pilot! But then, the pandemic hit. Looking for something else to do (yet again), Emre discovered coding, tried it, and realized he enjoyed it! Only a year after starting to learn to code, Emre landed a job at an international IT company.
In this episode, Emre talks about his long and winding but also efficient path to becoming a developer. You'll hear how he learned to code, what resources he used, and how he approached his portfolio projects and job applications! You will probably learn something about keeping up your motivation and managing stage fright before your interviews.
Artem
You have been on quite a journey, Artem. Your coding community is very proud of you. Thank you for sharing your insights derived from your personal experiences and…
May the Force Be with You! 🔦
