Tigran
There is a huge spectrum of roles available in tech, so learning to code doesn’t limit you to becoming a developer - as proved by Tigran, who’s landed his dream job as a Teaching Associate at a mini-bootcamp!
Vikas
Meet Vikas Jyani 🇮🇳!
He studied fine arts before discovering coding and realizing that web development is what can combine his eye for design and interest in tech.
In this episode, you'll hear about Vikas's approach to learning and job hunting and why he thinks remote work might still not be optimal for a junior. He talks about life-changing advice he got from a senior developer when he saw Vikas was burning out, recognizing red flags in job offers, and, eventually, how he tripled his salary within a year from getting his first job!
You will also learn more about India. Specifically, its job market and education, differences between big and small cities, and why a hybrid approach to work, combining remote work and going to an office, might not work there.
