As part of my javascript learning journey, today I learned some valuable career advice beyond coding how to introduce yourself in an interview and how to start contributing to open source.One of the most common interview question is tell me about yourself? while answering this question it should be unique way.Focus on your strengths. Mention ur educational backgroud , explain what technologies your are learning, mention ur github profile and blogs, keep anything that makes you unique. Next thing is many beginners think open source contribution is writing complex code.However contribution can be any type and every contribution is valuable. If you are just starting documentation is the best place to begin.For example, if you find that a documentation page is very difficult for beginners to understand, you can contribute by make it beginner-friendly.Some beginner friendly contributes can include:
Simplifying difficult explanations
Improving grammar and spelling
Adding clearer examples
Improving formatting
Updating outdated information
Making content easier for beginners to understand
Once you're comfortable with documentation contributions, you can gradually move on to fixing bugs, adding features, and contributing code.Every contribution counts. Whether it's fixing a typing mistake, simplifying documentation, improving examples, or writing code, each contribution helps the open-source community grow.
