15 months have passed since the creation of my topic for successful employment Javarush learn once - use anywhere . During this time, I managed to learn even more things and also change companies. I would like to start by saying that if you think programming is an easy job (whether physically or otherwise), then you are seriously mistaken. I took part in hardcore business trips (4 hours of sleep a day), when the product was sawed “on the customer’s lap.” I also had to manage a fairly large number of completely different projects, performing the roles of not only a developer, but also a tester, consultant, support, and so on. I realized that this state of affairs was associated with the catastrophically small size of the company. After some time of this regime, I began to realize that I was running out of steam, and besides, despite the psychological support of managers, my financial income did not change, I worked on all holidays, in huge quantities. If you think you are worth more, stick to your line. I am definitely grateful to my first company, in such a difficult and difficult situation I learned many new things in a short time (some Enterprise technologies, front-end design, studied a bunch of JS libraries and several HTML frameworks, deepened my understanding of Java). But at some point I decided that it was time to get a promotion, this was due to the fact that I felt a strong development in my skills, as well as the fact that working for the same money (it was a really meager salary) in such hardcore conditions I was more not ready. So I asked my boss about my promotion, while simultaneously creating a resume and posting it on HeadHunter. Then a series of various interviews began at other companies; the current management did not want me to leave, but they never made an offer. And then, absolutely by chance, the HR manager of Wrike found me and offered to consider the vacancy of QA-Automation Engineer. I successfully passed the interview (a little better / a little worse than in other companies). I was impressed by the speed of HR’s work, and before I even walked 200 meters from the office, they called me and said that they were ready to send me an offer within an hour. As a result, I was assessed at a radically different salary amount, and also (as I realized later) invited to one of the best companies in Voronezh with a reputation all over the world. The work of a programmer never ceases to amaze me. In WrikeI saw a new, even more catastrophically larger world of IT, learned about the numerous types of IT specialists, about radically different attitudes towards employees, opportunities on a completely different scale opened up before me. Now my life as a “programmer” means a free schedule, ample opportunities for self-realization, a wonderful team, interesting tasks and, of course, financial independence. Don't give up, develop and love what you do, work with full dedication, and you will definitely find yourself in a world that will always surprise you. Thank you so much Javarush! For 30 levels that changed my life.
