Started in 2021 - videos from YouTube, materials online
Did not have 1on1 tutor or coach
This year July, came across EntryLevel - was like “wow”
It was so cheap I was doubting
Did the tasks in the course - it was challenging
At the end of the course, you’ll be able to create your portfolio
The deadline made me submit my portfolio and tasks
Have to be very consistent
You need to do a self-assessment before taking a course
Portfolio
Even if you can’t finish your portfolio, just submit it
Shared certificate, recommendation letter on LinkedIn
Created Upwork account
Some people assume they get a job after the course
Connect on LinkedIn communities
Wasn’t in search of a job at first
Try freelancing after the course
Shared CV with someone to get the referral
Surround self with tech community
If you want to dive into tech, do a self-assessment to see which career fits you
Can take EntryLevel’s quiz: https://www.entrylevel.net/quiz
Make Google your friend - learn something new every day
Be ready to learn - keep your desire to learn
Be consistent
Need a laptop, data
Take notes
Connect with people on LinkedIn
Freelance on Upwork
Apply to company in intern role
If companies don’t have Scrum Master - email them and say you can help them
It has been amazing
I had to make a lot of changes to make them more efficient (instead of hour-long meetings)
Used 1 week to observe the company
Then implemented improvements
The Scrum Master works with dev, instead of in dev team
If dev team encounters blockers, they bring them to me
Can share those problems with stakeholders
Have not attended interview for Scrum Master role yet
Learned a lot - feel like I’d do well since I learned a lot and have a lot of knowledge
Referral, so no interview
After 1 month, they were impressed, so started paying
