Disclaimer: These thoughts are my own (Bianca Danforth) based on my experience starting as an Outreachy at Mozilla and now working as a Senior Software Engineer.
Congratulations! You’ve just completed your Outreachy internship. You may be wondering: Where do I go from here? How do I get a job in software engineering? Below are a set of steps I recommend based on my own experience.
- Identify goals
- What are your professional goals?
- If you're not sure where to start, ask other people you admire what their professional goals are.
- Identify skills
- What skills do you need to achieve your goals (those you already have, those that you need to improve, and those you need to learn)?
