Do I have enough experience to be hired as a remote software developer?
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5717049Do you think I have enough experience to be hired as a remote developer for a company? I'm just tired of driving into work everyday AND trying to do grad school. I don't see myself continuing to do what I did last semester. I live in Texas and I own a car, but I'd really like to just sell it and ride my bike to campus.
I got my bachelors degree in physics and I started a Computer Science minor, but I never finished the minor.
Every job that I've had since graduating from college has been as some sort of developer role.
-Most of my experience has been in programming with Java.
-I like to use JUnit and Mockito for testing.I've used RestEasy before to make a few apis.
-Even after using it a few times, I'm still not completely sure how Spring works or why IOC is useful.
-My front end skills suck. If you need someone to write any type of css or complicated javascript app I can get something done...but it will be bad.
-I'm using BuildHive as the CI server for a personal project that I have on Github.
-I know how to use git. For more advanced things like cherry picking and rebasing I've started playing around with source tree.
So...what would I need to do to be hired as a mid level dev remotely?
