5 Projects That will Guarantee You Get Hired | #CodingPhase

[Music] hey guys it's your boy Joe back at it again : face calm your boys backing out and did it again listen there's a core score I know how to code now what so the first thing that we got to do and the first thing that we're gonna talk about is the five projects right I've been saying this if you're a fan of Mines from YouTube you basically know this that I keep repeating this there's five projects that guarantee you to get a job number one is a real estate website why do I say a real estate website number one there's a lot of different things in the UI like different forms filters you know the fact that you have multiple listings those things can help you out but for me the biggest thing that helps you out when you build a real estate it's the fact that you understand a lot of JavaScript and it shows to a future employer that you know Java scripting you can come in and you know hit the ground running all right that's number one number two a restaurant why a restaurant a restaurant is very important because it shows you can build any type of website right doesn't matter if it's the Chinese restaurant around the corner it could be the fancy Italian restaurant that you go to you just have to create a website for a restaurant it doesn't matter doesn't matter if it's a real restaurant or it's just fiction all right now number three I will say is definitely going to be your portfolio so far we got two two websites that you created so far right number three has to be your portfolio because as soon as you complete one website you have to show it off to other people and show it to people that's gonna search your name so make sure your portfolio has your name your full name we're not talking about your a fiction name your street name your you know your nickname that your friends call you it has to be a full name like my website is Joe Santos Garcia dot-com people can find me people can see my resumes people can see companies I've worked for clients that I've had pretty much that's what you want to do on your portfolio alright another website is that ecommerce it doesn't matter if you're selling a beach shirt it doesn't matter if you're selling t-shirts doesn't matter if you're selling sneakers doesn't matter what it is but there has to be a ecommerce because you have to understand 99% of the time you're gonna get hired to a company that's going to sell things online all right that's how you gonna get your money you're not gonna get your money from you know creating your friends music website I mean sometimes some people are lucky and they find a cool website like that to work for I'm gonna say hey you you have a friend who has a rock band whatever it is right you can actually go in there build his website but in reality when you get hired 99% of the time is gonna be like a ecommerce website especially your first job so you definitely need to show like hey I've built other e-commerce websites so you need that to be on your resume another website that I will say to have for sure is a digital agency alright a digital agency when I say that I say that because sometimes you're gonna get the opportunity to get hired to work for a digital agency who does you know cool stuff like cool websites for Nike cool websites for coca-cola cool websites for the easies it doesn't matter what brand it is right there's always going to be a digital agency hiring developers so you want to show off your skill the animation you want to show off your skills and presentation cool designs all right so you definitely need to have a digital agency even when I have something like a parallax scrolling it doesn't matter all it really matters is that you have something flashy something nice I mean if you don't know what a digital agency is fine just look online search it now I'm gonna say this to you guys because I know a lot of you guys don't have no history of design yeah I don't understand design and understand color theory y'all understand hierarchy yeah I don't understand a lot of things and that's fine what I will say to you guys is but it's companies when they come to your portfolio they want to see something that makes you stand out if you have designs you have websites that look like you're worth a million bucks or that you work for a major company automatically you're gonna go ahead of the list because there's plenty of talented developers out there but do their websites look good but I don't think so and that's what makes you special that's what makes you different so that's one thing that I will say for you guys to do for sure all right so this are my five websites the five websites that every developer needs to have especially every junior developer just because it's just gonna make you go ahead of everybody else a lot of people go in for interviews with little websites full of code like you know a little snippet codes from github or you know copan and it's like people don't hire you for that people hire you to have websites so if you show up with just a couple of snippets and be like oh yeah I could do an algorithm yeah I could do a little change of CSS but do you have full websites what websites what company have you ever worked for for right that's what you want to show an employer alright guys so you know I want to welcome you guys to this course I know how to code now what
