The Self Taught Developer
It's a term we hear more often these days - "I'm self taught!". What seemed like a rarity years ago has been increasingly more common in our industry, so today we sat down with our engineer on staff who taught himself programming (one of 11 at Buffer!) - Hamish Macpherson!
Hamish is a senior engineer who works primarily on the front-end of Buffer. In this episode, we cover:
- His journey to learning programming
- How early jobs and projects helped him level up quickly
- Resources and communities to learn from
- Dealing with an initial rejection from Buffer when applying the first time, and how he took feedback in and improved to land the job the second time
- ...and more!
