The Complete Software Developer’s Career Guide
Review by Sven Woltmann
This book is a comprehensive guide to a successful career in software development.
It answers questions from all levels of the development career: How do I start my career? How do I get a job? In which direction can and should I specialize? How do I deal with superiors and colleagues? How do I earn a promotion? How do I develop myself?
The book is written in a simple and entertaining form, enriched with personal anecdotes, and it is enjoyable to read.
🎧 Suitable as an audiobook? Yes, absolutely. I particularly like the fact that John Sonmez reads his books himself and repeatedly adds a few paragraphs that are not in the book.
