Relic Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Quest Mountain is on the distant horizon. That is where I belong. That is where I am headed. I have obstacles but I have focus. Some days I walk, some days I barely crawl, but I won't look away. Quest : get to the base of the mountain (get hired as a programmer) progress - I'm halfway through my first school year 4 week mission : midigate the quicksand My depression usually lasts less than 4 days, but I can get very behind in school/chores in that time. To help keep my mood as light as possible, every day I will journal or meditate, and I will acknowledge something that I am grateful for.

Eirlys Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Hi Relic I assume I live in a different country, but as part of my day job I hire programmers. Are there any tips you would like to land a job? Where are you with your career aspirations at the moment? 1 Quote Eirlys - Long Time Wood Fairy Druid Current Challenge: S4 (Sleep, Sugar, Spending, Son) Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. -- Antoine de Saint-Exupery Done is better than perfect -- Facebook Link to comment
Relic Posted April 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 Oh! I'd love to ask some questions if you don't mind. Currently my aspirations are just to get through school and get hired somewhere (hopefully before school is over), but I would like to know when you think someone is ready to start applying. In other words, what are some desirable things that you look for in less experienced progremmers? Quote To find piece with myselfI must first find a piece of myself Link to comment

Relic Posted April 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 *Sigh* Not doing well... I'll keep my head up as good as I can though. Thankful that I was able to go on an hour walk today. Working on not dreading my Monday assignments... Quote To find piece with myselfI must first find a piece of myself Link to comment
