From today on writing blogs and hosting code to GitHub

I recently read an article titled "resume danger", formerly called "Resumes are dangerous".

　　

The author is Alex maccaw. He has an article that has been widely circulated on the Internet-traveling, writing and programming (2011) "(and its subsequent" how to travel around the world for a year "), translated as" 21-year-old programmer's journey to the world: Book writing, play, get Twitter offer ".

The main meaning of the full text is that most people's resumes are always exaggerated and cannot reflect their true abilities. Therefore, when interviewing others, they will pay attention to what is relatively less fake, such as GitHub and blogs. The first thing I look for in a resume is a GitHub URL. if I can find that, I stop reading the resume and start reading code. doing open source is not a be-all and end-all by any means, but it's a good starting point. after five minutes of reading through a candidate's code I have a good handle of their skill level and style, making the interview run much more smoothly. he pointed out that by reading the subject's code Learn about their skill levels and coding styles.

Therefore, if we want to present ourselves to the interviewer, It is very effective to post GitHub and blog addresses on our resume. Seeing this, coupled with my recent job preparation, I restarted my blog writing journey.

In fact, this decision is not just a whim. I have read two nagging articles, "Why do I insist on writing a blog" and "why do I insist on writing a blog (continued)". I learned a lot about the benefits of blog writing, and also had the concerns that he said. I was finally defeated by my concerns and gave up writing my blog for the moment.

　　This time I started my blog again and summarized some of the benefits that I valued:

1. Take notes. As the saying goes, "a good memory is worse than a bad pen ".

2. Discuss with like-minded friends and constantly reflect on and correct the learned knowledge.

3. develop a good habit of thinking and summarizing.

4. Exercise expression skills and express your opinions and thoughts in a concise and focused manner. This is also my most lacking.

In the past, I always thought that time was not enough and that it was too hasty. It was time to move slowly, so I thought and summarized more.
