#271 - The Physics of Career Change: How Long It Actually Takes to Become a Software Developer
Manage episode 505142191 series 3399111
Remember when coding bootcamps promised you could learn to code and land a job in just three months?
That golden era of easy entry into tech has fundamentally changed, yet the marketing hasn't caught up with reality.
In this eye-opening conversation, ex-Google engineer Zubin and host Brian cut through the hype to deliver a reality check about what it actually takes to transition into software development in 2025.
What separates those who succeed from those who don't?
It's rarely about raw talent or technical aptitude. Instead, it's about creating systems that allow for consistent practice despite life's inevitable challenges.
"I've seen computer science grads fail and French fry cooks succeed"
Let's dig into why.
