How Do I Start Networking For Jobs As A Fledging Programmer? by efembaba(op): 2:40pm On Sep 30, 2021
Hello. I have been learning Javascript for a few weeks now and I must say it's been challenging albeit interesting. But the greater challenge I am foreseeing now is in getting good job after mastering the language to a professional level. I am learning on my own, reading books and watching videos here and there and I am quite determined.

But I don't want to struggle before getting a good job after mastery. I don't live in Lagos and I don't have friends who are into development. That is why I thought that to network with the Fathers and Mothers early on this platform might be a good choice for me.

So, to my Ogas at the top and to everyone who can help, Pls I need contacts, links, promising organizations, people etc that I can start eyeing from now.

Please don't ignore this if you can help. Thanks a lot..

I don't live in Lagos or urban areas and I currently don't know places or people hence my plea for network..
Thanks a lot

1. Join online developers community. That's the first step. Developers help developers.

2. Look for clients to do projects for, no matter how small. A small paying client, can bring a mega paying client.

3. Visit Nairaland web and programming sections.
