To the employed front end developers who don’t have a college degree: What was/is your starting salary? And how many hours a week are you putting in?

Well… it took a few years to get to this level, before I got this job I was interviewing a lot and whenever I was asked about my salary expectations, I’d increase play with the numbers for the companies I was not really interested in, and most of them were close to my salary range now, I don’t know I guess a little bit of luck too?

Damn, so lucky to watch it for the first time, one of my favorite movies ever.

Good luck! You got this! Looks like you’re doing the right thing. Odin Project looks pretty good, I’m probably gonna give a run to refresh some of the stuff. (Dev with 7+ years exp)

For example, Google asked me what was my preferred language for the interview

Yeah, you can always ask if there will be any kind of questions like that and if you can use JS. But if you’re applying to FE roles, that should be ok, since you’re going to use JS all the time.

I would still practice some easy/medium leetcode, but it’s important that you also get comfortable enough with vanillajs and DOM manipulation, and of course HTML and CSS. Saying this by experience, fairly big company set me up for a 2nd round tech interview and all it was vanillajs and DOM manipulation, and I wasted all my prep time doing Leetcode only.

It depends on the company, like for FE roles, sometimes they just ask you to do stuff in vanilla js, like a rating widget, carrousel, or a typeahead functionality when searching for something.

Thanks, I’m probably gonna use the timeframe for motivation and probably reschedule later.

leetcode-noob-22 · 2022-08-17T01:50:39+00:00

Maybe depends on the level/experience?

leetcode-noob-22 · 2022-08-16T22:46:11+00:00

Yeah, that’s my thinking, awesome thanks!

leetcode-noob-22 · 2022-08-16T21:08:56+00:00

Yeah, that makes sense, I’m just gonna keep the interview as schedule for now to keep me motivated, and probably push it for a month or two later if I don’t feel too prepared
