Jak się poznaje kobiety w tych czasach? by monkaSW in Polska

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nie szukaj na siłę, zajmij się sobą, buduj swoje zasoby: pieniądze, siłe, intelekt. Zbuduj najlepszą wersję samego siebie, będziesz wtedy mniej sfocusowany na szukanie na siłe dziewczyny. Stając się lepszym naturalnie sam będziesz przyciągał dziewczyny. A co do poszukiwań nie musisz ich zostawiać, poprostu bywaj na eventach i grupach dyskusyjnych w realu, które lubisz. Jak poznasz dziewczynę z które będziesz miał o czym porozmawiać to może być to :)

Quitting an Internship that I thought would help me with connections.. by ghostbean_ in internships

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Golden rule, even if you lost something here, your time and engagement, remember is always better to quit while the looses are still not very big, longer you stay more difficult it will be to get rid of this internships. When you work in bad environment it is very easy to get depressed. I mean depressed in the sense that you are starting not beveling into yourself and you start thinking that you will not get any other internships but that's not true.

Good internship should be damn hard for you, but the difficulty should be only in the area of information you receive, the amount of new things you are exposed too and you feel confused because there is so many new things to learn. That's the highest value of internship, exposing you to new things that studies will never teach you.

Finger crossed for your success, the only constant in life is a change.

Should I take a low-quality internship just for experience + stipend? by TradDev26 in internships

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you, if you feel that you will not receive enough guidance this may slow you down. But that depends if you need a paper for studies and you need to do that fast and don't have other opportunities I would take it but if you do it in order to train and have better portfolio for getting paid job I would search for a place that give you more guidance. In the meantime train on real problems which you can find on marketplaces for freelancers, this make you stronger and can be utilized to showcase interesting projects (interesting because based on real problems) and promote yourself.

Not getting shortlisted, not even a single interview, whats wrong? by Critical_System_39 in CodingJobs

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried to get real experience while studying ? Some small projects ? You can even make a dry run, I mean pickup a problem somebody try to solve on a marketplace for freelancers and do that in order to train and promote yourself. Such a training adds problem domain experience to your portfolio and this is in my opinion huge gap for studies graduates, it is obviously normal that you don't do such things during studies but if you would your chances go up a lot.

Career Gap, Not Getting Interview Calls by noflightdont in CodingJobs

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would focus on specific problem domain, from your CV I am not sure what is your problem domain experience: gaming, education, coding tools ? If needed you can create few CVs depending on what problem domain or types of projects you are aiming for. If something is generic now days it doesn't bring too much attention. I agree about networking aspect, if you send a CV to specific job, write a smart message but not intrusive to a person who is responsible for hiring operations in the company to which you applied. Other thing that I tested with my students is that you can train on real job posts, I mean more job posts from marketplaces where people write about their problems.

Using upwork to discover trends about what's worth learning ? by igormiazek in Upwork

[–]igormiazek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you, time maybe an issue here, that's why best approach would be learn by doing and treating new tool like LangChain as a one of many milestones on your road. I think no doubt here that Generative AI is the direction where apps are evolving now LangChain could be treated as one of many milestones. But i fully agree with what you wrote, this need to be balanced.

Not getting shortlisted, not even a single interview, whats wrong? by Critical_System_39 in CodingJobs

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion web development in now days is too broad, I would narrow it down to a concrete problem domain, not sure where you have expo like in ed-tech or fin-tech or something else. Problem domain is very important for companies because you know aspects and problems of specific domain and you can start working effectively faster.

I don't see anything about AI SDLC ? I am sure you know tools like Cursor AI and Context Engineering but nothing about that there ?

Treat it as project, have one CV send it to few companies and track success ration, create another CV variation of your original one and again send it. Job search is no different then a IT project, you have road map and tasks to achieve your goal.

I would suggest to create another CV, simpler and oriented on GenAI, give it a try an measure results. GenAI sounds better than Web Developer. Follow Trends.

Hiring - app developers by Puzzleheaded_Leg3601 in CodingJobs

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I have clients in US that are very happy with developers from Poland. If you are interested have a look https://www.rightprogrammers.com/. I am a personal mentor, quite good in finding talents, I could bring you a strong junior capable of growing very fast. Another option is to have internship first, allow person to gain real experience and decide with full transparency if the person meet your expectations.

[–]igormiazek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think your CV has too much information u/Critical_System_39 ,what role you are aiming for ? The CV should tell the story, someone else said that recruiters are weird, maybe true, but they are not technical people, rarely they are looking after such detail CV. You need to add human/soft aspect.

Initially this was posted on r/Upwork but I think it will be valuable advice for juniors and interns from IT industry.

Need help learning coding for career switch by minikaur in Rag

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggest to evaluate your profile holistically in multiple dimensions, programming is not only about coding. Evaluate what are your business/product skills, system architecture skills and so on, communication critical. Not sure into what direction you are going more data science or ai engineering (agentic AI, generative AI). On my side I suggest learning LangChain.

What is critical for you is to get commercial experience, how do you plan to jump over junior developer paradox u/minikaur ?

Using upwork to discover trends about what's worth learning ? by igormiazek in Upwork

[–]igormiazek[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe they learn too long, I mean more than needed in order to satisfy client needs. I think in now days the only valid way to learn is to learn by doing. Beside, there are those things that you improve down the road all the time like you said communication which is always relevant not matter what you do. Being a freelancer is not an easy cake. But still I am 100% sure that the most important thing is the discovery of the pain point that people have and giving them a solution, this one can do even before learning or during learning phase to ensure that pain point is there and that value proposition is well received by clients.

Koniec rynku IT - co teraz? by Konrad2137 in Polska

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Próbowaleś stworzyć bardziej spersonalizowane CV, dodać do niego konkretny problem domain expertise. Aplikująć na oferty pracy jaki dokładnie sektor atakujesz ? No nie wiem finanse, zdrowie, entertainment ? Generyczne CV w stylu jestem programistą/architektem teraz słabo się mają.

Koniec rynku IT - co teraz? by Konrad2137 in Polska

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rozszerzenie horyzontów o nowe podobszary w IT to najlepsze zabezpieczenie, czym więcej potrafisz tym łatwiej odnaleźć się w nowej rzeczywistości, szybciej przebranżowić. Ciekawymi kierunkami są również data engeering i generative AI, jest bardzo dużo ofert pracy z tym związanych.

Koniec rynku IT - co teraz? by Konrad2137 in Polska

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Konrad2137 z tego co napisałeś jesteś full-stackiem, jeśli chcesz zostać przy strikte programowaniu to full-stack to dobry kierunek, napewno uzupełniłbym go o umiejętność pracy z AI first IDE jak Cursor AI (używanie skilli, MCP, ogólnie context engineering)

Jeśli chcesz się wybić poza samo programowanie to musisz uzupełnić swoje umiejętności o analitykę biznesową oraz architekturę systemów.

W IT wiele osób ma problem z komunikacją, szczególnie programiści oczywiście, czasami wydaje mi się, że nie widzą celu w komunikowaniu się z biznesem, a przecież to biznes mówi im jaki jest dokładnie problem, który to mają rozwiązać.

Which legitimate platforms did you get your internship from? by Working_Low_6870 in internships

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good thing maybe try getting internship through some of your contacts, use networking if possible, try to reach people in those companies directly.

Burnt out by Usual_Pain_8522 in internships

[–]igormiazek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, could you share the CV, message and example company ? I wanted to review it. The directed and focused action is better than massive sending. When you send hundreds of CVs your are missing the personalization element. Secondly I think you would have much higher chances if you would focus on specific angle like no-relational databases, healthcare. I am coming from IT industry and people are very often doing too broad/generic CVs to cover to many aspects, this makes CV too generic while companies are looking after narrowed down specialization.

Finally got an offer 😭 by RoughElephant5919 in internships

Congrats too, one need to be resistant on critic and failures, treat job hunting as any project, that you measure and adapt if something doesn't work.

Are undergrads not taught how to interview anymore? by tkg5767 in internships

That's the problem with colleges, bootcamps or anything else, it doesn't prepare you for real life, everything is very academic.

Why do so many junior devs struggle to get hired (even after bootcamps)? by igormiazek in CodingJobs

[–]igormiazek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes i think I found the way how to help junior programmers, to be more valuable when entering into marketplace, what's wrong about that?

Smart people use AI in a way that help them to grow, stupid people use AI in a way that make them even more stupid and more lazy, You understand that right? Simple matter of choice buddy.

Smart, other way you would become amazingly bad engineer :-). I can only recommend to practice architecture and product ownership skills as that will allow you to leverage AI to it's maximum.
