When I started my career I had lots of questions, sometimes I was confused about which direction to take, and which skills to pick up. After a while, I found someone who gave me direction and goals, who saw the future of my career and helped me reach my goals faster by taking the right path.
Now, I am here to be that person for many other engineers who needs it. This is a paid program, which means you and I will need to put in the effort and make your dreams come true. I did lots of volunteering/free mentorship, but mostly my mentees are not that serious since they get it for free. Here I deal with engineers who really want to change and revolutionize their career path.
A bit about me though,
I'm a computer scientist who worked as a software engineer, engineering manager and software architect with many different companies. I also taught computer science topics and mentored many engineers through Hours of Code, Built By Girls and many other programs.
I am a huge advocate for growth skills impacts on career growth and would like to share this knowledge with you all.
So let's get started. :)
5 out of 5 stars
I was working in a position that wasn't fulfilling and diminished my technical skills to a point where I questioned if I could even continue being a software developer. I didn't feel confident coding, understanding bugs, or feeling I could be autonomous. But I decided to take a chance and leave my position and pursue a mentorship full-time. I wanted to learn something current, fulfilling, and enjoyable in order to bring more to the table as a developer to a company and feel well-rounded as a developer myself. So I decided on the JavaScript/React/Node space. I chose Naz because not only were her technical skills impressive but so was the way she looked at mentoring and teaching. When I began my time with Naz, we started from the ground up. I went from a basic understanding of JavaScript to tackling React and Node projects where I could guide myself into learning more when knowledge gaps arose. Naz helped me understand my learning patterns and areas to improve. I even took on new challenges like blogging on Medium or helping others with coding in my spare time. It's honestly amazing this was all within the span of 6-9 months. I feel so much more self-sufficient and was able to overcome a lot of my insecurities as a developer. Because of my time with Naz, I am entering my latest role as a full-stack JavaScript engineer at a startup! This is something I couldn't imagine myself doing prior to this experience and honestly, I encourage any developer that is struggling with direction to take on a mentorship program because not only will you understand more technically, but you will understand more about yourself and your abilities!
