I sit down with Stuart to talk about the journey he took from his 15 year “temporary job” as a call centre manager to being a self taught developer and bootcamp graduate now working in a thriving UK e-commerce company as a full stack developer.
We cover:
Deciding to make the change.
Financing the bootcamp.
Transitioning from his old role’s mindset to the mind set of a developer.
Standing out as a new developer.
The importance of early feedback.
What Stuart would have done differently.
