           You need to land your first job

          If you want to advance your career, you need to learn not just technical skills but how your work supports your organization’s goals. Everyone knows that leadership and communication skills are important, so create an

           action plan

          <br/>
          To keep moving up the ladder into the ranks of staff engineer, principal engineer, distinguished engineer, or other staff+ roles, you need to
          <a style="color: #4969ED;text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank">
           be a force multiplier
          </a>
          for your team and your organization. That means being able to not just write great code, but help everyone around you succeed. Ask yourself what Ted Lasso would do if he were a programmer. Learn to lead productive discussions, give teammates opportunities to shine, and always be open to feedback.
          <br/>

          If you find yourself drawn to the community side of programming, such as giving talks and writing technical content, you might also consider moving into a

           Adaptive leadership
