#250 - Delivery Driver to Developer: Jacob’s Journey into Tech as a New Dad
Description
Whatever you do, don’t learn to code.
The market is over-saturated.
AI took your job.
There is no hope.
But then you meet someone like Jacob, a young dad who was delivering food a year ago and just landed his first dev job without submitting a single application.
Is his story typical? No. But then few stories are.
At Parsity.io, we've seen CS grads take up to a year to get hired. We've seen people go from zero to hired in 6 months or less.
There is no formula.
What works for one person might work for you and it might not.
Not a great marketing tactic eh? It's just the truth.
Jacob shares how he landed a role with ZERO applications and juggling a tight schedule as a new father while learning to build complex software.
