When you start learning software development, you eventually pass the point where you go from learning, to actively seeking a job. That experience is difficult, because you may not feel ready, but in order to progress as a programmer, it's important to get hands-on real-world experience. Here to discuss that with me today is Matthew Baker, former MEDEVAC Crewchief and fellow Elixir Newbie.Links:- Matthew Baker Linkedin- pragmatic.inc@gmail.com- @leftstanding
