0. Overview 📄

If you landed here, I guess you want to start, or you're already applying for jobs. In this directory I'll give you a short overview of the topics I'm including and why I think they're important. If you have a specific topic you're looking for, feel free to jump right into it.

Topics in this Guide

  • Strategy 📈
    In my opinion having a strategy for applying is super useful. Being sure about what you want and what you have to offer will increase your chance to find a great match.

  • CV 📝 Your CV is the first (and often the only) thing a recruiter sees. Most CVs get a short screening of only a few seconds, before the first decision is made. Putting some effort in your CV can make the difference if you make it to a process or not.

  • Job Boards 🔍 Researching job listings can be overwhelming, especially with tons of job boards, advertisements and recruiters reaching out to you. This is an overview of job boards with some additional info.

  • Cover Letter ✉️ A cover letter is often optional, but I will point out why I think you should always write a cover letter and what to include.

  • Interview Prep 🎤 In most application processes you will have different kinds of interviews. Preparation is necessary for all kinds of interviews, not just technical.

  • Coding Task Prep 🎯 In some interview processes you'll get asked to do a coding task. Knowing what to expect and how to prepare (especially with limited time) is going to make it a lot easier.

  • Resources 🔨 You can find some resources here that I found useful or that have been recommended a lot by other developers. I'm going to update this section on a regular basis.
