You know how to code. That is great! This one skill can transform your life forever.

There’s only one problem — knowing how to code doesn’t guarantee you’ll find a job. It’s a prerequisite, but it’s not enough.

The competition in the software development market, especially amongst juniors, is fierce. In my company, we get over hundred resumes for one junior frontend development position.

Why choose you?

You have to stand out. That’s the only way. Your application has to be different than others. The little moment of brilliance that will make us pick you to the next phase of the recruitment process.

Now that I mention it — the recruitment process. It’s not enough to have an impressive resume or portfolio, you have to nail the next steps too. Sometimes it is a phone or online interview. Sometimes it’s the on-site interview. If you’re unlucky, it could be the dreaded whiteboard interview.

Different companies have different processes. How can you prepare for everything?

I’ve got bad news and good news. Bad news — it’s difficult. Your odds of landing a job you’re applying for are low, there are many skilled candidates. The good news? You will send many applications and you just need one “yes”.

The second good news? I wrote a book that will help you. It will guide you through every step of the front-end recruitment process. Really, every step. Here’s the table of contents for you:

Who is this book for?

It’s for people who know how to code but still can’t find a job because they:

❌ Don’t have professional experience

❌ Don’t get answers from companies

❌ Lack confidence to apply

❌ Are not sure how to make an impressive portfolio

❌ Fail at interviews

❌ Don’t know how to stand out from the crowd of junior developers
