If you are an aspiring developer trying to figure out how to actually stand out in the job search, this podcast episode is for you. I brought on Scott to ask me as many questions as he could in under 30 minutes about landing that first job. We dove into practical strategies for junior developers to stand out in a competitive job market. We discussed the importance of identifying your unique selling points and tailoring your job search to align with your strengths. I also shared insights on how to effectively decode job postings and avoid wasting time on irrelevant opportunities. I hope this helps!
