What do you do to stand out as a good candidate?
That even FAANG companies are interested in? I got 4 yoe. Self taught. But Have a technical non-cs-degree. My skills include Java + JavaScript + css + various frontend frameworks + little bit of Operation (docker/aws)
You do leetcode!!
How do companies get to know that I’m good leetcoding?
You can show that via your GitHub Profile by documenting solutions for questions you do. Or Maybe just participate in one of those coding contest and when you win any of them,write it down as an achievement on your Resume.
Have FAANG on your resume...
I got a Netflix account. Does this suffice to be put on my resume?
Let me know if it worked...
Stop referring to the languages and frameworks as your skills. That's a red flag for a bad software dev. Real developers are env agnostic Pick an actual discipline -> Networking/Distributed Systems/Modeling/Systems/UX ECT and position yourself as an expert for that discipline.
Is backend or frontend also a discipline?
How do I find my discipline if I’m a webdeveloper? (Im clueless what „discipline“ is )
As long as your resume looks good is all it is.
Define a „good resume“
