Software Roles, Responsibilities, IT Recruitment Masterclass
Software Roles, Responsibilities, IT Recruitment Masterclass
The course is an introduction to the roles and responsibilities beyond designations.
No certifications or silver bullets exist for a long and fulfilling software career. Instead, the course provides a brief overview of the industry and processes from an experienced engineer's perspective.
The main goal of the course is to make the aspirants aware of the big picture before they get caught up in confusing job descriptions. A prosperous career cannot be purchased or fast-tracked. It needs daily nurturing via habits and coherent knowledge.
Moving between different-sized organizations often leads to taking up multiple roles. Frequent job switching can lead to career path fragmentation. To avoid getting overwhelmed by the situation, one may choose to be aware of the bigger picture upfront. The fundamentals change at a much slower pace compared to trends. Build expertise around fundamentals for a great career.
