While I was studying electronic engineering, I became interested in backend development, and while preparing for the job, I didn't have any developers around me, so I wanted to get insights on employment-related topics from current developers. It was really great to be able to get a glimpse into the thoughts of current developers by reading the secret notes!!!

After only one year of being a developer
Double your salary? 💰

I am active on YouTube as Developer Namno .

In the second semester of my fourth year, I suddenly wanted to become a developer, so I dropped out of my major and prepared to get a job as a developer.
As a result, I received my first annual salary offer of 26 million won. A year later, I received an offer of 50 million won.
I joined Kakao based on the know-how I gained from applying to over 50 companies over two years, repeatedly failing and passing numerous times.

I decided to create a job search guidebook to prevent others from experiencing the trials and errors I experienced.
I hope this lecture will serve as a milestone for those preparing to find employment as a developer.

After applying to over 50 companies over the course of two years, I went through trial and error.
From $2600 to $5000,000 salary offer! 👨‍💻

Conclusion 中 💬

...I hope those who read this book will read it with the mindset of asking questions to those who have already found jobs. It will serve as a reliable guide whenever they encounter difficulties. I really needed a book like this. I had a really hard time preparing for employment. People around me constantly pressured me, and my initial confidence was disappearing. The biggest reason I was psychologically struggling and anxious was because I couldn't figure out the answer to the question, "Am I doing well?" When I searched for developer jobs online, I was overwhelmed with conflicting opinions, and as someone new to the field, I couldn't possibly judge its worth. I even thought that getting a developer job was just a vague concept, that luck was a big factor.

I hope you find success in your job search through skill, not luck. Please make good use of this book. I hope the time will come when you can access quality job-related information and utilize its services. I find it frustrating that, despite the frequent job changes in my profession, information is always scarce, and I have to rely solely on information shared by developers here and there to prepare. It also takes a lot of time to gather information.

I hope this lecture will be helpful to those preparing for employment. 💌
