I just finished high school and worked with a few friends on a simple professional project we sold to customers. About a year and a half of experience in Go, with a year or so of experience in C# on personal projects. It's almost like finding a needle in the haystack for getting a place even to set up an interview, and not some outsourced recruiter just passing it along. Any tips? I've already applied to a multitude of places.

Im a Senior Software Engineer. My advice would be this. Go and C# are both great languages, but many employers hire people that can work with certain frameworks, Like .NET for c#, or Angular, React for Javascript. Learn a frame work, from front to back. Then sign up as a provider for a website site like Fiverr, where people can hire you to do some simple programming work for them. Put that on your resume. Create a LinkedIn account, Create a website portfolio of sample projects you've built. Add links to your portfolio site and your LinkedIn profile to your resume. Last but not least, start applying to smaller companies looking for web app developers or something along those lines. Its alot of work, but no employer will hand you a paycheck for free. Do all those things and you will increase your chance of landing a job 10x. Good luck.

That’s a great question, and one that’s quite relevant today. In many cases, companies opt for staff augmentation to quickly scale their teams with specialized talent while maintaining flexibility. It’s especially useful for handling peak workloads or launching new tech initiatives without long-term commitments.

Today it is quite easy to create quality software. I know this purely from my experience, because many people ask about it. I found Sloboda Studio , which is able to make a really cool application or software for business. It helps to automate business tasks, make them comfortable and convenient. So if you are interested, you can look at it in details. Good luck, I hope it was useful.

First off: you got a couple of currently in-demand languages to build from. Congratz! Peter Pagano laid out one possible path. I'll offer an alternate / possibly parallel suggestion: build up your skills in systems analysis, database, and scripting. If you can pair those with demonstrable skill at DOCUMENTATION and written communication, it will go a long way toward "proving your worth".

Well the answer is somewhat simple. In my experience working with banks, as they consolidated the workforce, duties that were usually handled by new grads were repackaged into the responsibilities of the more seasoned employees. So instead of a team of 10, you're now on a team of 7...three salaries and healthcare plans removed from the books; the money saved sent to the top of the house to keep management's pockets bulging at bonus time.
