Replying to @Whittington III™ 🤗 🎓If I could go back, would I go to college for a degree in software engineering and a coding bootcamp again? Yes and no! Here are a few ways I would make the most out of my college experience and also build practical skills. From building practical skills early to making the most of office hours, these tips would have been a total game-changer for me—and they can be for you too. ✨ Here’s a few things I would change:
1️⃣ Start building a strong GitHub portfolio from your first semester.
2️⃣ Build relationships with professors through office hours for mentorship.
3️⃣ Start networking and attending local meetups early to grow your community.
4️⃣ Check job listings regularly to stay updated on in-demand technologies.
5️⃣ Prioritize internships—many lead to return offers!
Don’t wait until after graduation to set yourself up for success in this job market. #
