How To Get a Job as a Software Engineer

Jobs in the Software industry are highly sought after. They pay well, have great benefits and perks, are fun, and can change the life of you and those around you.

But sometimes it feels impossible to get one of these hidden gems.

Maybe you are looking to get your first job as a Software Engineer, or maybe you have one but want to trade up to a better one.

You've tried a bunch of approaches but it seems like your resume just falls into a black hole.

We often think that the issue is ourselves. I'm here to tell you that's probably wrong. It's just that you are using the wrong approaches.

This book contains actionable, practical advice that actually gets results.

How do I know? I've worked in the industry over a decade at small and large companies. Not only have I gotten into companies of all sizes in all industries, I've reviewed thousands of resumes.

But most importantly, I've helped people just like you break into the industry. Or trade up from one Engineering job to another with significant pay increase. Every single person I've helped hands on has been successful in achieving their goals.

While I of course can't guarantee success, in this book I share the exact advice I gave to those people that helped them land their dream goals and change their lives.

This book will help you understand the strategies that actually work so you don't waste your time endlessly applying to job sites and never hearing back.
