I don't mean services like MOOCs, but rather platforms that go in-depth into tech stacks and related technologies like how Laracasts focuses on PHP and its ecosystem. It could be about any language or technology.

Thank you! I knew there was something, but I wasn't sure what.

Exactly the same company. The fact that all of their glassdoor reviews are from India made me rethink if I should follow through. We'll see how it goes, but making a blacklist sounds pretty dope, so that's a nice new goal.

Preamble: I'm sure there's a better community to ask this question, comment below if you're aware of it.

Okay, for background I'm a bootcamp student, I'm still learning, but I'm almost done. I've been tweaking my LinkedIn as I go, trying to be more attractive for recruiters in the future. Well, last week I was contacted by a recruiter, and asked if I was interested in job opportunities. I did some brief research, and it looks like an actual company on Glassdoor. Anyway, I sent over my resume, and was on a call for maybe 5 minutes. We talk for a bit, and she asked me how I am in interviews and my experience. I tell her that I've been "technically" freelance, but I haven't done anything because of starting cost, but she seemed to ignore that concern. Towards the end of the call I asked her if this would be with her company, and she said yes, and then I said bye.

Now, the problem is that this company is specifically for interview prep, and helping students get hired at other companies. While she said I'd be with her company, I'm concerned that I'm trying to be sold something here. The company is called GigaMe, and there is barely anything online about them.

So, my overall question would be, "what would you do?" Or, what should I expect? I don't think i should get my hopes up, but any advice would help.

They're completely separate. I've heard that they're working on ways to fix this issue, though.

Question: How long does it take to get the proverbial ball rolling on Upwork? I used it for a month and spent $200+ and wasn't able to get any work.

I've used it to help me understand some code concepts and debugging, but over the last two weeks, it went from competent to completely stupid half of the time. It also fails to connect so often, it's unreal.

End of a season. This is a very touching chapter that proves how great the writers are.

Godot is written in GoLang?

[-] Decide@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

This is really good advice. I had no idea I about that area of work. It makes sense in hindsight, but having it written out so clearly really gives me some ideas on where to focus. Thank you.

[-] Decide@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Thank you! Your reply provides a lot of missing context. It will be my bible, or at least part of the guidelines I need to get something started.

[-] Decide@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

This makes a lot of sense. I'll have to see how I can apply this locally, but at least it's more information that I had before on how to approach this. I appreciate it, thank you.

[-] Decide@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

I'll look into this and see if I can fill in the gaps. Thank you!

[-] Decide@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Interesting. I'll make a note of this and start collecting some resources. Thank you.
