Debugging My Job Search 🐛💻 After applying to over 300 Developer roles, I’m pretty sure my “Apply Now” button needs a support group.  I’ve built entire apps faster than it takes to hear back from some companies. I keep checking my inbox like it’s a code log for errors. 😵💫 Apparently, this job search is the biggest debugging session I’ve ever had!  If anyone out there needs a Full Stack Developer who’s proficient in turning coffee into code (and occasionally, code into errors 😅), let’s connect.  Let’s turn this 404: Opportunity Not Found into a shiny 200 OK! ☕ #FullStackDreams #CodeAndCoffee #OpenToWork #DebuggingLife

Reading The Pragmatic Programmer has been a game-changer for me. This incredible book shifted my mindset from simply writing code to thinking like a true software craftsman. It emphasizes not just solving problems but solving them well, with resilience, scalability, and elegance.  Here are some key takeaways I’ve applied in my journey:   - Embracing the DRY principle to reduce redundancy.   - Breaking down complex problems into smaller, manageable tasks.   - Automating repetitive workflows to boost efficiency.   - Applying the “broken windows” philosophy to maintain clean and maintainable codebases.  These insights have significantly enhanced how I approach development. With 11+ years of experience as a senior full-stack developer, I am excited to put these principles into action on new challenges and projects.  I’m currently open to opportunities and looking forward to contributing to dynamic teams.

Hey friends, I'm on the job hunt! Unfortunately, I was among those who were affected by layoffs at my company and I could use your help finding the next step in my career. I am a Full-Stack Software Engineer (primarily PERN stack) with 3+ years of experience building web applications and teaching others to do the same! If you have any insights or leads, please send them my way! #react #developer #softwareengineer #pern #fullstack #tech #jobhunt #coding

Hi everyone, I wanted to share an update on my Vehicle Inventory Management System project. I've just added a fully functional frontend and made a demo video to show how it all works. This project started as a simple CRUD application inspired by a friend in car sales. Now, it's evolved into a full-stack application. I've integrated RxJS in Angular to handle reactive programming on the frontend, making the app more efficient and responsive. On the backend, I'm using Java + Spring Boot to ensure robustness and scalability. I'm planning to keep adding more features and will be sharing regular updates here on LinkedIn as part of my journey to find a new job. Still very much #openToWork (at this point #desperateForWork even 😂 ) Upcoming enhancements include: - Implementing authentication services for better security - Integrating with real-world APIs to expand functionality - Deploying the app to the cloud for wider accessibility I'm actively looking for opportunities where I can bring this problem-solving approach to a team. If you know of any roles in #FullStackDevelopment, #BackendDevelopment, #Microservices, or #CloudComputing, or if you're interested in collaborating, I'd love to connect. You can check out the project and the code here: https://lnkd.in/eXrVAr_e Thanks for your support, and stay tuned for more updates! #JavaDevelopment #Angular #RxJS #FullStack #SoftwareEngineering #OpenToWork #TechJobs

💻 The Journey of a Developer: Resilience in the Face of Challenges The journey of pursuing a career in software development has been nothing short of challenging. Despite my consistent efforts learning, improving, and applying for opportunities the results haven’t come as quickly as I hoped. The job search has been tough, and there have been moments of doubt, but I refuse to let setbacks define me. I believe in my skills as a Full-Stack Developer with experience in React, JavaScript, PostgreSQL, and Express. I’ve built applications that solve real-world problems, worked on complex projects, and consistently refined my craft. Every day, I focus on becoming a better developer, no matter how difficult the road might be. The tech industry is competitive, but I’ve embraced this as an opportunity to grow. For every rejection, I code another feature. For every unanswered application, I debug another project. I am determined to turn “no” into “not yet.” I never forget what my instructor Tim McKiernan always said: “Keep working.” Now i really understand that every line of code you write, every bug you fix, and every feature you build is progress, even when it doesn’t feel like it. Those words have stuck with me, reminding me that the small, consistent steps I take every day are what build the foundation of success. Persistence isn’t just about showing up it’s about giving your best effort learning from failures, and trusting the process even when the results aren’t immediate. I’m looking for an opportunity to contribute, learn, and grow with a team that values dedication, problem-solving, and innovation. If you’re looking for someone who brings resilience, creativity, and a strong work ethic to the table, I’m ready to show what I can do. I want to give a big shoutout to these incredibly talented engineers. I hope they find an amazing opportunity soon! Erick Tolentino , Alexander Tsiklidis ,Joram Mercado ,Keith C.

What is a Completion Handler?🤔 A completion handler is a closure passed as an argument to a function, executed when a task is completed 💻. It's used for asynchronous operations, allowing the caller to specify what action to take when the operation is finished 🕒. Types of Completion Handlers There are two main types of completion handlers: Basic 👍: A simple closure that takes no arguments, used to notify the caller that a task has completed. With Parameters 📝: A closure that takes one or more arguments, used to pass data or errors from the task to the caller. Error Handling: Error handling is crucial when working with completion handlers 🚨. When a task fails, the completion handler can pass an error object to the caller, allowing them to handle the error appropriately 💪. Advantages: Completion handlers offer several advantages, including: Asynchronous programming 💻: Allowing your app to remain responsive while performing tasks in the background. Decoupling 🔗: Decoupling the caller from the task, allowing them to focus on their own logic. Best Practices: When using completion handlers, follow best practices to ensure your code is readable and maintainable 📚: Use descriptive names 📝: Use descriptive names for your completion handlers. Handle errors 🚨: Always handle errors in your completion handlers. Common Use Cases: Completion handlers are commonly used for: Network requests 📱: Handling network requests, such as fetching data from a server. Database operations 💻: Handling database operations, such as reading or writing data to a database. By understanding completion handlers and following best practices, you can write robust and maintainable code that provides a great user experience! 👍 Like 🔄 Repost 💬 Comment your thoughts Follow Abbas Mehdi for amazing & insightful content on Programming & iOS Development👨💻 credit: W3Schools.com --- #iOSDevelopment 📱 #SwiftLang 🚀 #iOSProgramming 🖥️ #MobileAppDevelopment 📲 #AppDev 📱 #SwiftUI 🎨 #Xcode 🔧 #SwiftDeveloper 👨💻 #iOSApps 📱 #CodeNewbie 🧑💻 #opentowork #hiring
