Hello so my question is simple, I’m currently working on app that connects to the blockchain, I can handle errors and the ui is all but done. The problem is I am not able to get the error message when I get the transaction receipt. A message is normally displayed on the transaction on a transaction viewer e.g etherscan, binancescan, etc but I can’t get that message to display on the Frontend. Any help would be appreciated

Hi guys, I'm currently learning Web development. I'm done with Html, Css now heading to Javascript. The path seems to be interesting, easy going for me as I'm putting 100% effort to becoming a professional web developer before the end of October this year. Please, as a web developer. How can I get jobs when I'm done with my training?

Well when you’re done and you’ve grasped most of the concepts in js, and your css is okay. You have to realize finding a job and learning web dev are two different things. Just because you have the skills doesn’t mean you’ll automatically get jobs, you have to learn to market yourself and put yourself in the best light, especially as a newbie. That means optimizing your LinkedIn, creating a portfolio to show off personal projects since you don’t have experience, making sure that portfolio is really good(you can check out experienced developers portfolios and try to mimic it). You should also try to network on linked in and put yourself out there. That being said everyone started out from somewhere and if you keep applying(even to jobs you feel you’re not qualified for ). You’ll eventually get to where you want to be

Hey I’m a next developer with over three years experience in Frontend development, you can checkout my portfolio at https://binatari.github.io/portfolio2/

Hello, I just want to know the average amount a Nigerian developer charges per project.

This turing.com is similar to remotebase oh

Does anyone know how I can prepare for remotebase questions? Please help.

Just did remotebase mine was on react, so I can’t speak for other languages. Basically I was asked to build a component which I did but somehow it didn’t pass their tests. Which left me confused, I’d say practice DSA for all other languages

Loris576:
Apart from solidity what programming language did you start with

Well apart from solidity, I already knew html, css, JavaScript and react. I’m already a Frontend developer basically

Hi any other aspiring blockchain developers here? I recently just learnt solidity using remix, I’m currently using hardhat. Would love to interact with more people going through the path

What’s your email?

Just to add to this topic that there’s no one size fits all in every aspect of life, and nobody knows the defined path, I got a job in about two months after actively applying, actually I got about 6 offers in the space of the 2 months and I still get offers till today. My commits are very minimal, in fact I only make a commit when I’m done with a personal project, I do however have a portfolio that speaks for me and even though I didn’t have experience I was/am still headhunted. If GitHub counts are the metric behind getting jobs then that is a really shallow way of employing people.

airsaylongcome:
I don't have a LinkedIn or Facebook presence. To damned invasive and toxic those places.

And yea, I work remote. Exclusive for US companies.

If you’re available can I get your email, so we can talk about it in-depth, because that’s my gripe with indeed and LinkedIn it seems so convoluted

fineboynl:
Nigeria work nor be am especially with dollar and naira rate.

2014 to 2015 when dollar was exchanging for 200 to 230. I was doing jobs for 100k and now dollar is almost 600 I am still doing the same work 100k althrough and they refuse to upgrade the money.

It's so tiring and frustrating

Boss abeg I fit talk with you privately

Rgade:
LinkedIn

Thank you, one more question if you don’t mind. But you’d choose it over indeed yea??

Hello so I am a Frontend developer I primarily Use next.js nowadays. I am currently employed however just like basically every other developer my eyes have been on getting a remote job outside the country for a while, I’d just like advice from people with experience in this space on how to go about it, and how they got theirs. Any suggestion or advice would be spores a lot. Thanks

Are you still looking?

I've engaged with some developers on nairaland about this topic and out of frustration, I just surrendered.

Since the pandemic and the popularization of remote work, it's no longer news that western tech companies now look to source talents from Africa and Some parts of Asia. The rationale is to cut cost.

A recruiter that recruits for some of these tech companies recently told me that they no longer disclose potential salary budget to candidates from Africa, especially Nigeria.

She mentioned that they are always shocked at the salary expectations of candidates. She went further to state that 9 out of 10 candidates from Africa request for between 20% to 80% below the budget of the companies( Even though the company is already saving a lot by recruiting from Africa). And the fact that she mentioned Nigeria specifically got me a little angry.

Why tf will you guys be asking for $500/month for a software development role no matter whether its entry level or not? What values do you place on yourself? Just because you live in Nigeria? A cleaner does not even get paid $500/month in those companies. Do you feel good knowing the colleague you'll be working with is earning ×5 of what you're being paid and you're probably even adding more value. Don't you get angry?

The painful part is that some of these companies didnt even offer to pay you these miserable salaries, you requested it yourself.

Sometime ago, on another thread here on NL, on the same topic of remote job compensation, some folks came to the thread with alot of justification why $500/month is a good offer. They cited exchange rate, poverty rate in Nigeria, how there's no job and every other pathetic reasons why they should slave away to a western company. I can't even begin to reason the ones that are hawking their "skills" here on NL offering to build a full fledged e-commerce site with integrated payment solutions for 10k naira.

I don't care what you say, if you know your shit and have good self esteem, you can earn as much as $4k/month. Before you come here and start reciting all the impossibilites in your books, know that I'm writing from a position of knowledge. I have statistics and real life examples to substantiate this figure. I myself have been working remotely even before the pandemic.


I wouldn't have bothered to even write, but this development is now coming back to bite some of us just because we answer the name Nigerian.

Still asking boss, how likely do you think it is to get a remote job as an entry level dev. Would love to hear your reply

tensazangetsu20:
Lol women have it much easier getting roles than men. I have seen women who have to do lists on their portfolio getting very good high paying roles. Yeah build hard shit like an E commerce site, don't say there's a lot of E commerce site you can do it Jamstack and use WordPress as a CMS and use react to serve the data. You can build a blog using stuff like sanity and react. Make sure the designs are nice and good looking. You can use frameworks like chakra or material UI to really touche up things and animation libraries like framer. That's how you differentiate yourself.

Thank you very much I’ll try it out, I have some experience with framer so I’ll work on it, thank you. Also tensazangetsu nice bleach reference, if you have any thoughts on getting a remote job as an entry level dev I’d like to hear them too if it’s possible

tensazangetsu20:
Your portfolio looks nice from a design standpoint but your projects are not impressive. You are a guy build more hardcore stuff.

� there are male and female projects?? I’m going for a frontend role so I thought developing more front facing websites would be the way to go, I was trying my best not to put the average Netflix site or todo list in my repo. But what would you suggest, I’m really open to any suggestions

Heyy, so I’m an entry level frontend developer, i have little to no experience apart from my side projects. I just wanted to know how possible it’ll be to get a remote job with little experience and what platforms I can use, I’ve applied for a few jobs and got replies from a few companies. But most of the time i get like I get rejected because of experience even though I feel I’m a fairly competent developer for an entry level . Also if i could get suggestions on how to go about applying for jobs and what platforms are most effective that would be nice. Also I’m providing a link to my portfolio so I could get feedback on anything I need to improve on [url] https://binatari.github.io/portfolio2/[/url]

Do you have a xr

Any problems??

Good morning, I think the topic is pretty self explanatory, I’m planning on buying from the US and shipping it down to Nigeria. I just wanted to ask if anyone has used them and what their experience was during the transaction, the rates seem very affordable but I’m more concerned about the service and how fast the delivery is

Thank you very much how much do they sell
