It is always fascinating to see how software engineers enter the field, and the paths can be very diverse. Some have the chance to begin with small projects from private clients for a few months or even years, while others are hired by companies directly after completing their studies or school projects.
Everyone’s journey is unique, and we all have a story to tell. Opportunities can vary depending on location, but what we have consistently seen is that doors open once you have the right skills.
We would be very interested to hear from you about how you secured your first real project or contract.
