#196 - Your First Day as a Software Developer: What to Expect and How to Not Suck

Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description

Nearly a decade ago I started my first day as a developer.

The night before the first day, I was barely able to sleep.

Would I be found out as a fake developer and fired immediately?

Would they give me a task I couldn’t figure out?

How long before they realized they made an error in their hiring process?

Well, I never got “found out” and I took on more than a few tasks I couldn’t figure out… yet.

If you're learning to code or recently got hired - I lay out a plan to help you tackle your first day as a real deal developer, stand out and maybe even impress your teammates.
