Objective
As a programmer, how to improve yourself faster so that you can leap to a higher level is a concern for everyone. Qualitative leap is a slow process, philosophically speaking: a lot of quantitative changes will bring qualitative change, that is, programmers want to be architects, technical leader and even the CTO, the inevitable step is to complete a lot of quantitative change. How to achieve quantitative quantity? Fundamentally, it is to improve their personal ability, overall is to improve their personal ability and establish a personal brand. Why is it not enough to simply improve one's ability at the root? The reason is simple, the ability is very strong and others think you ability is very strong is not one thing. It's hard to get people to recognize you, mainly because of the following reasons: First of all, you tell others that you are very good, you are very strong, others may not believe, and even think you are bragging, and then you prove yourself strong by actual work, which is not easy, One is not everyone's recognition you are difficult to undertake important tasks, can not assume the important task often means that you can not display their ability, second, want to stand out in the daily work is not easy ah, everyone IQ is similar, you with what better than others, too difficult, third is even if you through the actual work proved your ability, You also can't make people around you feel strong, they may just feel like you're just a little stronger than they are because you're around them, so you can't be a legend. Want someone else's approval? Want to be a legend in the eyes of others? In addition to improve their personal ability, you also have to establish a personal brand, only the industry-famous people can be more easily recognized by everyone, to get the name of Enterprise HR.
How to establish a personal brand
This is a complex problem, but can be refined into the following areas: famous schools, high education, reputation and enterprise experience, ability, working years, honorary certificates, various titles, industry awareness, these are the key words to establish personal brand, your personal brand represents you this person's industry image, your industry image is better, The better your status, your recognition and your treatment, the more you will do it.
Elite schools: Famous university graduates, at least if NB of 985, Tsinghua University, HKU, Stanford and other better, let others a look at your school think you should NB
High education: At least undergraduate, graduate, PhD better
Company experience: This needless to say, hr like people with big corporate experience
Ability: All through, a few kind of special, is the HR are like the master
Working life: The longer you work for a certain amount of time, the more you feel.
Certificate of Honor: Award Certificate of various competitions, such as ACM, etc.
Title: The title of various organizations, organizations, CSDN Blog experts, Microsoft MVP in this category, as well as Cnblogs, Chinaunix,github and other technical sites are related to the famous bloggers have the honorary title
Industry visibility: Often active in the major forums, the major technical summit, so that you can be the name of your ears, so as to help improve your industry visibility, industry awareness is important, two people who have the same ability, more famous people have better recognition, often the position level is also relatively high, In addition to writing books can also improve their industry awareness
How to establish a personal brand in a non-elite college
I think this problem is more valuable, because the elite of high school education is a minority, because they are very good, so it is relatively easy to get good job opportunities to improve themselves faster, no way, the world is the stronger the strong, weak weaker. For us to come from the ordinary, high school education is impossible, want to enter the famous enterprises, want to improve their level, want to recruit frequently to invite you to join their company, can only from the following aspects.
Ability: Hard to learn, desperately improve their technical strength, eat bitter bitter, square for people
Working life: This is nothing to say, with the increase in working life, personal ability must have a significant increase, otherwise, too old technology and general, there is no company is willing to
Certificate of Honor: In the school as much as possible to participate in the competition to win prizes, after work can participate in the software industry certification examination, although I think software development is a practice of art, but the theoretical knowledge is still needed
Title: Crazy study, fast, in some technical website active and get all kinds of honorary title: Moderator, Safflower, experts, MVP and other titles, the more the better
Industry Visibility: Active in the major forums, must be unified ID, it is best to give yourself an easy to remember nickname, you can also use the real-name system, weekend time to participate in some free technical meetings to recharge their own, by the way to meet some industry cattle, if there is time, you can write a book published
Through the above methods, as long as the efforts to practice, I believe that the ordinary non-elite school education, we can reach those high starting point of the height of the people, and so you reach a certain height, to find a good job, into the name of the enterprise just you want to do, every day you will be a variety of HR harassment, please join their company Secretly tell you, HR is often sister AO.
Conclusion
At the end of this article, I have been very appreciative of a few words very reasonable words, and we share the next, with June mutual encouragement.
1. Others behind the shiny often have little-known suffering: the sense is that a person seems to succeed, this is not taken for granted, the person behind must be paid a lot, eat a lot of pain to have today's achievements
2. You have to work very hard to look effortless: it means that you want to solve a problem at a time when someone else is doing it effortlessly, and you have to work very hard to learn it in private.
3. Matthew effect: "Whatever, but also give him, make him rich, no, even his all, also want to take away", this sentence can also be understood as good, the worse, also can understand as a step ahead, step by step lead, we have time to have this consciousness, as long as you go diligently to improve yourself once, You will find that you are more likely to get new improvements, so that your life will slowly change and become better. You work hard once, get a useful thing, with this thing, you become stronger, then you get another thing, you are stronger, and then you get something else, so you become stronger, the same, weaker and weaker, the crux of the problem is whether you will be desperate to reverse the situation, to get a thing you do not have.
4. Whenever you sigh, if there is such a thing is good, please note, actually this is your chance: this sentence is quite reasonable ah, we often think, "If this is good", this time, is actually an opportunity, you should consider how to achieve, how to get what you want by personal effort, for example, You are reading a technical book and suddenly think, "if only I could make a book!" ", this time, your opportunity to come, you should immediately think of what should be done to have a book of their own, after the thought of desperately to work hard, as long as the hard work, things have a lot of probability will be completed."
