I start my new job as a software developer tomorrow. I am both nervous and excited. Any tips/advice/things you wish you had known when starting out? I'd love to hear it!

@FrisianRage Getting your first job is the hardest part. Don't give up!! The company I work for (@fundrise) is hiring all sorts of engineers if you want to throw another application out there 🙂 https://t.co/VOuKKnBxhf

It's good to take a break from an annoying bug at the end of the day - sometimes you'll come back to it in the morning and realize it was just a typo 🙃

@kacieahmed I run most days before work! Also try to do at least 30 mins of yoga a day in the evenings (usually at home, sometimes at a studio)

@erinfoox I keep meaning to get into this series! ACOTAR is my favorite fantasy series of all time; I'm forever chasing that high.

[✨𝚓𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚓𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚌𝚘𝚍𝚎𝚜 @javascript_jess]

@erinfoox Hey, I feel the same! Since I've been working as a dev I have really been neglecting this. Which is silly, since I'm still learning so much every week!

[✨𝚓𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚓𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚌𝚘𝚍𝚎𝚜 @javascript_jess]

@thecaitcode Congrats on the launch! This looks like it will be a great resource for new devs 🎉

[✨𝚓𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚓𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚌𝚘𝚍𝚎𝚜 @javascript_jess]

@thecaitcode Always pink for testing 💖

@florinpop17 I’d also recommend the doc What the Health on Netflix. And Dominion on YT if you never want to touch an animal product again (not for the faint of heart, but was ultimately what made me decide on changing)

@florinpop17 I’ve been vegan for two years! If you’re interested in health, make sure you check out WFPB. Many people go vegan and feel worse because they eat a bunch of processed meat/cheese substitutes.

All of the women engineers at my new company meet up for an hour long zoom lunch once a month, and it makes me so happy 🥰 I love having a badass group of ladies to learn from!

My greatest accomplishment as a developer so far has been hitting the back arrow in a terminal command and knowing where the cursor is going to enter the character

@viraljetani Congrats on your new role!

[✨𝚓𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚓𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚌𝚘𝚍𝚎𝚜 @javascript_jess]

Does starting a new job in tech ever become less terrifying? Starting my second role as a software engineer tomorrow and impostor syndrome is definitely starting to kick in!

[✨𝚓𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚒𝚌𝚊𝚓𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚌𝚘𝚍𝚎𝚜 @javascript_jess]

@TetrisMcKenna Love that. Life is all about perspective!
