Thank you for this post.
I just graduated with a software engineering bachelors and will be applying for jobs soon. I especially like your tip on making sure that my needs are met as well. I'll definitely keep that in mind.
I'm interested in more than one field (e.g. web, Android, data science) and only have a limited amount of experience in them. How do I decide which positions to apply for? Do I apply to all types or try to settle on one?
I would definitely apply for all kinds of positions. Then, when you are interviewing make sure to ask a lot about what each position is like. They might mention responsibilities for one position that you are not super excited about, while another position sounds like exactly what you want to do. I started out doing full stack work then slowly migrated to the backend exclusively. Keep an eye out for positions that might expose you to multiple interests and then you can direct yourself however you want :)
