How I Got My First Job As a Software Engineer in South Africa | Tips on getting better

[@trinitysenpai7403]

At high school I switched to Maths Lit because I was struggling with Maths, family told me to give up on it, but I really love/enjoy coding now taking a gap year to learn more & try to build up a portfolio.
Love the content 🙏

[@NalediMgedezi]

That’s great! TUT doesn’t require Mathematics, so you can consider that if you want to go to school. All the best!
Thank you😊

[@devdotlog]

This company you speak of sounds like one of the companies where I had to write a number of tests as well… one online where you play a game, the other tests at their office where it’s hand written.🤔… like 4 or 5 hour tests.

[@SiviweXakaza]

[@kamogelomogoba2743]

Then next question, can you get into the software coding space with a information systems degree

[@kamogelomogoba2743]

what is the difference in teams of waiting if someone opts to do computer science diploma instead of the standardized degree?

[@NalediMgedezi]

I’m not sure if I understand

[@THESUPERIORONE.]

What kind of software are you working on ? Games?

[@andilederappoet]

you super smart and wise than you for the advice

[@NalediMgedezi]

Thank you.

[@modernfreeman4228]

Were your interviews based on algorithms and data structures or just the core language?

[@NalediMgedezi]

Both, some companies focused on the core language while other OOP+data struts

[@mashotomolefe931]

Hi
What did you use to apply on your 3rd year?

[@NalediMgedezi]

Did a search on Google

[@thabanimhlongo1438]

how much does junior software engineer get paid?

[@ilogicCeeJr]

1M annually...
Kidding 😂

[@NalediMgedezi]

It really depends, if you get a good company, anything above 15k - 20k, with no work experience

[@thabanimhlongo1438]

Ohk thank you Naledi
