Some of the best developers we hire crack the nod not because they have a particular skill-set, rather because they are well rounded smart-thinking problem solvers who have a solid understanding of the fundamentals of object orientation and computer science. What this boils down to is - if and when you are pulled from your comfort zone, will you be able to cope ? It's easy to get cosy in a job that doesn't offer much challenge but the consequence of staying could have a much larger impact on your career than you might imagine.
When the going gets tough at your company and you start seeing warning signs of instability - will you be in a position to make a move and sustain your income? These are tough questions to ask, but investing early on in the right skills and education can put you in a better position to navigate your career through tough times.
Some warning signs to look out for are highlighted in the following article by Rich Hein
About Us
- Entelect
- Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa
- We form part of the management team at Entelect, a software development house based in Johannesburg. Between us, we have interviewed, hired, worked with, worked under and managed well over a thousand software engineers and software developers. While we may not all agree on the content of each of the articles in the blog, we definitely agree that South Africa has some of the best software professionals in the world, and that South Africa also has a skills shortage in the developer space. Please feel free to participate in the discussion on relevant, interesting and perhaps some even light-hearted issues surrounding recruitment and staffing in the software industry.
