Week 1: First Impressions
In this module, we explore who you are, what you are looking for and how to use some of the tools and resources that hiring managers use to find and evaluate you as a potential new-hire. You will start with assessing yourself and identifying which types of positions most interest you. Next you will lay out a plan to create a professional online presence that will showcase your skills, knowledge, and participation in projects. You will spend time reviewing examples of resumes, portfolios, and projects from others to gain ideas, offer feedback and receive feedback of your own presentation. Lastly, you will develop your elevator pitch – a short, 30-second monologue to introduce yourself, your experience and background, and what you are interested in pursuing.

Week 2: The Interview Process
In this module, we cover several resources for creating maximum exposure to you as a potential candidate. Learn approaches to networking both online and within your local community. We will discuss how to effectively look for positions, how to apply, and how to prepare for submitting you application and resume. Freelancing may be an option or desire for some, and you will be introduced to several concepts needed to be successful working within this type of arrangement. Most of the project management concepts covered in freelancing apply directly to internal positions at a company as well.

Week 3: The Interview Process
How can you be best prepared for an interview? What questions will you be asked? What if you don’t know an answer? We discover the answers to these questions and many more. We offer recommendations on how to manage the application process, how to follow up after you have applied, and some perspectives on how to handle rejection. This week also covers some insights on accepting an offer and how and when to negotiate.

Week 4: Technical Know-How
In this final module, we spend time exploring how to gain more experience in the software development industry, learning some of the unique aspects of interviewing for software development and other technical positions. We will consider the nature of internships, apprenticeships, and potential volunteer positions, and how they might fit into your plan. We discuss how to contribute to open-source projects, how to review and update your portfolio website. We examine how to be prepared for the tough technical interview questions by demonstrating how to explain algorithms and data structures and how to present a whiteboard explanation.
