From noob to developer in 7 months

Meet Paul Lee.

In September 2020 Paul decided to learn to code and stumbled upon Scrimba. Just 7 months later he got an entry-level job in Tokyo 🎉

In this interview, I spoke to Paul about:

• Anxieties and doubt learning to code
• How Paul learned to trust the process and all of a sudden had 2 job offers
• How developer jobs work in Japan (I learned two-day internships are common)
• At Scrimba we claim "Our career path helps motivated students become hireable frontend developers for 1% of the cost" I asked Paul if we're telling the truth 😬
