| Video Discription | I came into my first software engineering job basically knowing nothing. I'd written a few Python scripts, I had done a few data analysis projects, and I'd built some simple web apps all by myself with a few different programming languages like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, worked with some Django, some node, some Mathematica and Matlab. I had taken one programming course in college that was it. I never even touched object-oriented programming in that course. But I got a full time job as a software engineer anyway! So while a degree is great, if you don't have one, it's possible to have a career as a software engineer. Coding bootcamps and self-teaching is possible! Where should you start if you want to learn to code? I loved the Python for Everybody Specialization on Coursera for your first programming course! https://imp.i384100.net/a1yWOZ For go, I recommend the Tour of Go: https://tour.golang.org/welcome/1 And the book The Go Programming Language: https://amzn.to/3eTSQJL I also really recommend the book Clean Code: https://amzn.to/3kv2yDs Join this channel to get access to perks like voting on my next video and behind the scenes! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzaYH6WeohiHKj3Ih_GdZdQ/join Or sign up for the same perks on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/amarchenkova Here's what I really wished I knew my first year of my software engineering job. I was completely self taught so there was a LOT to learn. 00:00 My coding background 00:35 School does not prepare you for the reality of being a software engineer, so you’re really not that far behind people who actually have a Computer Science Degree. 02:45 Your job as a junior engineer is to ask questions and absorb as much knowledge as you can. You are not annoying people. 04:50 It will take you about 6 months to ramp up and be independent. 07:07 Take breaks!!! 09:01 You have to keep learning, and build that learning into your schedule. It'll be hard, and you'll get frustrated. But keep at it! Disclaimer: Affiliate links may be used in my recommendations.
