As the saying goes, men fear the wrong, women are afraid to marry the wrong husband, once the wrong, which means you wrong direction in life, his career will encounter a lot of misfortune and frustration, then the series did not go well, not income ideal, brought to life stress and all kinds of trouble. In fact, every industry is not easy, the key is you have no interest in this industry, if you are not interested in this industry, force yourself to enter this industry, then you are definitely in the wrong line. I think, if you have a strong interest in this industry, I think there is not much to do with age. Please take a step back, I loaded to force.
Programming has a great curiosity and interest, so I entered this industry.
At school, he has just started to learn C language, even to achieve some simple arithmetic procedures, programming it makes me feel very magical, but also use the calculator before these things in life, but do not know how to achieve, by learn to make himself even realized by a computer language, it really is wonderful ah. The curriculum also learned flash, then the teacher demonstrates the realization of the mouse button through a script by flash, leaving the effect of a button, it really is amazing, there are aspects of the curriculum to make web pages, html, css various effects of these implementations, it is amazing. In this way, With a curious mind, I became interested in programming.
In 2005, had just graduated, very eager to get a programming job, and then recruitment mad search the Internet with programming related positions, found out are selected, and then vote on the resume, the interview will receive a phone every day, busy very, full of achievements. Although each interview back a result are the same, that is: call you in a week. Mostly no phone, and later came to understand what it means. I remember once returned from an interview the next day received a phone call, but do not know what the phone, then went to one day before the interview and asked the company is not retest the phone they gave me, they said no, I still do not believe, ha ha , think of all ridiculous. It is because I was too eager to get the program to work, so every time I come back to do a summary of the interview, why can not I be hired? So I find a reason, I finally found out why.
First, there is no development experience.
Most of them are start-up companies, they do not need is to have experienced people can enter a company can create value for the company, they do not want to spend manpower, material and financial resources to develop a novice, so do not have experience in the development of a person , it is normal.
Second, the resume package is not good enough.
Because no work experience, no development over the project, so your resume will lack this one, precisely these two points are the most important, from a people do not understand, people want to know you is through your resume.
So, after several failed the interview, I began to do the work from these two points, each time I read the job requirements of the recruiting, I have pointed to the main points to be familiar with it again, even to practice once, so when I went to the interview at the time, the interviewer asked me the question, I am well prepared, I will be very easy to answer his questions. In addition, the resume, I was familiar with the recent according to their knowledge about the make up of the project has been developed over the reference, so I have a resume content, and do not want to have so empty, it seems more abundant than before. Thus, after failed again and again, I finally found a site development work, the happy ah! Programming career began.
Earn extra money, let me produce power for programming, faster and their ability to enhance the technical level.
In 2006 and 2007, when the prevalence or PC era, but also the business establishment of the prevalence of the times, if not every business its own website, will feel there is a grade lower than their peers website, it is so, establishment needs so produce, therefore, establishment and company came into being. I was in a station company is working to develop the site, has been working for two years, the development also have some experience, but not very comprehensive. Once in a while, a company salesman told me that there is a client wanted to develop a website, asked me if I can not take this personal list, I was like, programming is not a problem, but not the front and artists, finally I was turned down. Then think about it, I can learn their own front-end, art ah. So I spent a few months of self-study time, I learned to front-end development, also learned the simple art design, in fact, is by copying someone else's site. Later, another colleague to the company to work occasionally will contact me and asked if I could take extra money, you can make money, so I ended up my courage, took a single, through my efforts, I finished my work the first career extra project, although much money, but enough to rent me a few months, and after that time, I am particularly motivated, I feel I got to the pinnacle of life, ideas churning in my mind, contemplating a how much then how much a single month alone, more than I can how much money a month, dreaming of one day becoming the richest man in the village house, ha ha. In retrospect, this period of time, although more difficult, but fruitful, this income would not have said, and put out there, and more importantly my efforts more than usual doubled, so my technique enhance the level faster, knowledge becomes wider, programming from back-to-front-end development, graphic design, build for the control, as well as the entire project server, configuration, deployment, implementation, can be described independently.
Technical capacity and improve the level of work experience continuously enriched, also a corresponding increase in wages
When the first job, wage requirements is simply not required, just to have a job, gain experience, then pay only 1100 yuan / month, in addition to rent, monthly expenses, at the end of also running out, basically be a paycheck to paycheck . With the ability to upgrade, work experience and constantly enrich the original salary certainly does not meet their demands, and later found a second company, the treatment of 1,800 yuan / month, I was very happy to go to work about a year, due to the company's poor management no alternative but to find a third job, pay 2,500 yuan / month, really happy, fourth working conditions 3,500 yuan / month, the fifth work of 6500 yuan / month, this leap, even I have a little guilty feel their pay and rewards disproportionate, Void, and always I feel heart is not practical when paychecks every month, so at work, I took the initiative to work overtime, the purpose is to balance mind. Jump in front of a few years more frequently, the next two years are the basic jump, because, by job-hopping will increase faster than wages stay in the company, this is the law, but too often is not good, because the big companies look at you loyalty, small companies hopping point does not matter. The sixth job 12,000 yuan / month, then could not believe myself, I feel this is a job a career-best treatment. In front of a few years to find a job are relying resume, behind basically rely on friends, this is because in peacetime accumulation out of the amateur part-time connections, usually to help a friend do some free projects, on time and quality and quantity, but also so the establishment of a trust, the work of a friend of nature do not how the interview, and direct work, it would be a return on it. The seventh job 25,000 yuan / month, which is really a testament to the usual oral said the success in work, career rise higher and higher, ah, ha ha. The eighth work up to now, higher wages, and do not say here, life can be, anyway, the house has also been, the car has also been asking me the phone number of beauty more and more.
Almost 40 years old, I would not continue to write code?
In the last ten years of his career, along the way, I feel that is more fortunate, is relatively smooth, although those big companies can not afford more than the annual salary of more than a million executives, but for me personally, I am very satisfied I'm still stick to writing code in the first line, at this age, or should I switch to management direction? In fact, every industry are the same, if you are proficient enough in one area, you are just ordinary men, you can not gain a foothold, it is very simple, it took to play the game, if you play a game, "superb" you may have the capital to talk to other people play, if you will what the game a little bit, then you simply can not play with others. Fast 40-year-old wrote do not write code that is not a problem, is not it also relies on writing code to make money, not a problem. The key is that you do not love the heat this thing to write code, and the code you write is what? If you do not gain any pleasure in writing code, not 40-year-old, 20-year-old to write code that is a tragedy. Do what you love to do, there are income-generating livelihoods, why not? From now on, I signed up for a public number "Programmer things", ready to share technical articles with you, welcome friends concerned about the exchange, learn together and progress together.
