Junior Software Developer seeking mentorship and team environment
A recent Computer Science graduate, currently the sole developer on a team for 7 months, is concerned about limited learning opportunities and lack of mentorship. This presents an excellent opportunity for them to transition into a junior software developer or associate software engineer role within a company that offers a structured team, mentorship, and opportunities to learn best practices. Resume Direction: Emphasize practical experience gained, specific features implemented (e.g., file naming systems), and documentation created. Highlight autonomy, problem-solving skills, and a strong desire to learn in a collaborative environment. Look for companies known for strong engineering cultures, formal mentorship programs, or clear career progression paths for junior developers. Expected Earnings: For a junior software developer with 7 months of post-grad experience, expected earnings typically range from $60,000 - $90,000+ depending on location, company size, and tech stack, with the added benefit of accelerating skill development.
