Starting an Internship at HNG - My Goals Checklist

Hello devs , one thing I have learnt in my dev journey is the importance of having a goal, so this is me documenting my journey through the HNG internship.

A quick one about HNG, HNG is a virtual internship operated by Zuri, that helps devs scale their career with real world experience.

I believe setting goals for any journey, can help you appreciate how far you've gone at the end.

I would love to push myself a bit, so I'm participating in 3 tracks: Backend, Frontend and Mobile. I know it's gonna be tough, but I believe I can do this.

My Goals include:

Create meaningful connections with other developers.
Improve my tolerance to pressure.
Improve my current know-how in the back-end, front-end and mobile stack by learning from mentors.
Create projects confidently from start to finish.
Learn how to work with a team(never have).
Gain real world experience

I will be back here again to see how well I did.

Wish me luck
