An unorthodox approach to getting your first job in IT, based on my personal opinion.

Hackerrank, I am sorry. You still rock, but nothing beats that approach :)
Klarna employees, those 10% who were laid off. My post is one of the realistic ways to get jobs in IT, as I see it.
Martina Majova - thank you for the inspiration
P.S. #recruiters - you are still needed, even more than before. We just will have to grow, together ;)

It is an interesting strategy, and one that could work well. But depending on the company it could be a huge task to make any kind of useful contribution. And actively advocating for something can be seen as trying to suck up to them (which is exactly what it is).
Someone who is this dedicated probably already has a Github account with several projects.
Why did you mention Klarna employees? That sentence doesn't even make sense. And in the future I suggest you actually take the effort to write everything into the article instead of linking to a Twitter thread.
Thank you for your feedback, it helps to improve :)
