YouTube career vs Udacity career

Not to brag but I’m really good at job hunt. I’m a mediocre engineer but currently sit at $370k TC with 3 yoe, moving to Google as an L5. This is the third job in my career I’m probably going to drown (re: I’m a mediocre engineer) but I want to make some passive income and the most marketable skill I have is the ability to land jobs, so I’m going to make a video series on the whole process, hoping to not be a clone of all the others but statistically a clone I will be. Does anyone have statistics on if it’s better to launch of YouTube or Udacity first? I have to imagine both are critical but I want to start on the right foot

What content for yt ? Job finding?

The whole 9 yards. Job hunt, resume building, resume review, technical interviews, communicating with recruiters, behavioral questions, internal transfers, everything. There would be 2 sides of the channel, a general side and a SWE side

Always and only YouTube! It is hard in the beginning but once you have an audience it’s really powerful!

Neat! I have a YouTube channel right now (1.7k subs so far). I just make tech tutorials but lately have been trying to get into more career related topics. Would definitely recommend YouTube!

Good luck. It’s an already saturated market. I’d also check with your employer as to whether you’re even allowed to do that or not

Udemy and YouTube both. You can publish daily content on YouTube and people can buy your course from udemy or your personal teachable website or blog

If you want to stand out explain your journey in detail. The Wins and the losses. Too many YouTubers just make videos about their success without much context, that doesn't help anyone and makes a false image of perfection. You might be perfect, which is fine if true, but there can't be that many perfect people on YT, and even if they are the content isn't helpful
