Started learning to program seriously early 2017. Love fixing problems so decided to switch careers from e-commerce and management to programming and web dev. Longterm goal is full stack developer.
Totally agree with you, I used to do hiring for a non technical job and honestly it totally changed my mindset, Now when interviewing i find myself asking as many questions as the interviewer. That plus a little confidence in my abilities now that i'm not as young makes a huge difference in the whole process. I feel that the "asking me questions" part is almost a formality. If I like the company and the role than i'll learn whatever i need to learn. Most jobs i've had required me to learn something completely outside of my realm and experience anyway and i've done fine.
I'm more concerned about the company, my direct manager and the overall culture. are they honest as a company, is customer or clients more important than team all the time? is the manager a goofball or a good leader.
