Listen "What REALLY Gets Software Developers Promoted?"
Episode Synopsis
It can be confusing when most companies don't make it clear how software developers can get promoted for more senior roles. If you're a junior developer and trying to figure out, what exactly do I need to do? – it may not be cut and dry. Rather in this episode, I share some soft skills I've found in working with over 30 software development teams that I see those who get promoted exhibit. If you want to be considered for a senior software engineer role, or perhaps a higher level role such as a team lead, development manager, director, or even CTO – these skills are incredibly valuable. They will make you stand out from other candidates and naturally be seen as a more mature option for a technical leader.
