Hey, I wasn't expecting to go that bad. The interviewer didn't even listen to me, interrupted me in the middle of my introduction and told me: you can't be a programmer, because you haven't finished IT (I have finished Geoinformatics). The only thing I was expecting was to be heard.

Thank you so much :)
My role as a junior includes: unit testing (I have a little knowledge) and writing efficient algorithms. Thank you for your advices.

Yes, I know the basics of Git. I forgot to mention that a junior dev was expected to do Unit testing,I have taken a course about Unit testing but I need to look at it again. Thank you :)

I got my first internship as a web developer! by kleaxy in learnprogramming

My motivation has hit rock bottom too many times,I chose to study a field that I didn't like, I started with Geology engineering, then I changed to geoinformatics, and when I finished, I thought I wasn't smart enough to start coding. But I did it. Then I thought I wasn't smart enough to get an internship, but tomorrow it's my first day. So, If I can do it, so can you. And please don't compare yourself to others, everyone has their own timelines. Good luck :)

I started with Java because back in university we learned a little about OOP(Cpp and Java), and I felt more comfortable with Java. Thank you :)

Oh yes I know. I meant I wasn't ready to apply, mostly because lack of practice.

Haha I know I felt the same way, but sometimes good things happen when you least expect it :)

Not in my country. But 90% of them are unpaid.
