Optional Exercise: Github Master

Please note that this is completely optional (mainly for fun) exercise.

Don't have a good Github history? Don't worry! If you are looking to add a little flare to your Github profile, which a lot of recruiters check, you can try using this tool: https://github.com/aneagoie/gitfiti

It will generate a file for you full of git commands which you will be able to run and design your Github history whichever way you want. Make sure you read the instructions and understand what it does!

The changes may take a few hours to take effect. If you succeeded, congrats! You just finished the easiest, and silliest exercise of this course!

If you have any questions, reach out in our private Discord chat community in the #helpme channel!

    Hey $BOB,

    I'm also a $FOO developer. I noticed that your company is hiring
    or $ROLE. I’d love to be a part of your team. Do you have a
    few minutes to chat on Thursday about what you guys are doing?

Resources: Where To Find Jobs?

Here is a list of my recommended resources for finding that dream job:

My Favourites:

LinkedIn Jobs

HackerNews Who is Hiring (You will need to search for most recent month)

AngelList

Seen: One company that I think is doing something interesting and may help you get a job is Seen by Indeed.

Seen is a platform that helps software engineers find jobs at top tech companies. It's 100% free for all candidates (students) and gives you Career Coaching, Resume Review, Interview Prep and Salary Negotiation.. they charge the recruiter, so if you are a good candidate, they get you hired and they make money through the company and not you... (it's free to you). Seen tries to find a job from their list of 10,000 companies.

Evaluate if this is something you might want to attempt but I know a few people who have had a good experience with this... keep in mind this is an affiliate link but I think they are doing something great: click here to check it out
