我如何在五個月內將薪金提高一倍并獲得一份了不起的工作 (How I Doubled my Salary in Five Months and Got an Amazing Job)

Six months ago I quit my job as a junior JavaScript developer and travelled around south east Asia for five months. Within a week of getting back to the UK, I had three job offers and had accepted an offer for almost double my previous salary. It wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. Here’s how I did it.

六個月前，我辭掉了初級JavaScript開發人員的工作，在東南亞各地旅行了五個月。 回到英國一周后，我得到了三個工作機會，并且接受了一份幾乎是我以前薪水兩倍的工作。 這并不容易，但是值得。 這是我的方法。

目的 (The Aim)

I was planning to travel around south east Asia for 3–6 months, and I knew that I wanted to get a better job when I returned. My junior JavaScript job had shown me three things:

我打算在東南亞旅行3到6個月，我知道回國后想得到更好的工作。 我的初級JavaScript工作向我展示了三件事：

• I loved to code, not only as a hobby but as a job.
  我喜歡編碼，不僅是業余愛好，還是工作。
• I enjoyed back-end development work as it was removed from the CSS and visual design of front-end development work.
  我很喜歡后端開發工作，因為它已從CSS和前端開發工作的視覺設計中刪除。
• I didn’t like Angular that much.
  我不太喜歡Angular。

With this knowledge, I set about creating a target for where I wanted to be by the time I finished traveling, and what I needed to learn to get to that point.

有了這些知識，我便著手為完成旅行之前想要達到的目標以及達到該目標所需要學習的知識建立目標。

My target was to be a mid level full stack developer.

我的目標是成為中級全棧開發人員 。

偵察 (The Recon)

To become the mid level full stack developer I wanted to be, and to find out where I needed to improve, I looked for jobs that I would actually want. I saw what they were requiring in a candidate and what they said was desirable.

為了成為我想要成為的中層全棧開發人員，并找出我需要改進的地方，我尋找了我真正想要的工作。 我看到了他們對候選人的要求，他們說的是可取的。

Through this research, I found a list of things that most of the jobs required:

通過這項研究，我找到了大多數工作所需的清單：

• Strong understanding of JavaScript
  深入了解JavaScript
• At least one framework (usually React or Angular)
  至少一個框架(通常是React或Angular)
• Ability to create a REST API (usually express)
  能夠創建REST API(通常表示)
• Knowledge of one or more database (usually MongoDB or SQL)
  了解一個或多個數據庫(通常是MongoDB或SQL)

制定計劃 (Formulating the Plan)

With this information, I knew that I needed to up my game in a few key areas:

有了這些信息，我知道我需要在幾個關鍵領域進行比賽：

I needed to finish reading You Don’t Know JS. This book series helped me really understand the basics of JavaScript, so I reasoned that it would be great for learning the more advanced stuff.

我需要完成閱讀《 你不懂JS》 。 這本書系列幫助我真正地了解了JavaScript的基礎知識，因此我認為這對于學習更高級的知識非常有用。

I needed to become very good at one front end framework. I looked into Angular, Vue, and React and decided on React. I’d done a bit of React before and liked it, I wasn’t a fan of Angular, and Vue wasn’t requested in many job adverts.

我需要變得非常擅長于一個前端框架。 我研究了Angular，Vue和React并決定使用React。 我之前做過一些React并喜歡它，我不是Angular的粉絲，而且在很多招聘廣告中都沒有要求Vue。

Although I could just about create an express API from scratch, I wasn’t very confident and could only do the basics. I needed to up my game across the board with this, especially if I was wanting to have a job that prioritized back end work.

盡管我可以從頭開始創建一個Express API，但我不是很自信，只能做一些基礎工作。 我需要以此來全面提升我的游戲水平，尤其是當我想要一份優先考慮后端工作的工作時。

I could either stick with relational databases (postgreSQL) or learn a new DB. I decided that I would go for learning MongoDB as it was massively popular and added NoSQL databases to my CV.

我可以堅持使用關系數據庫(postgreSQL)或學習新的數據庫。 我決定去學習MongoDB，因為它非常受歡迎，并在我的CV中添加了NoSQL數據庫。

I wasn’t sure how long I’d be traveling, so decided to plan my learning out like this:

我不確定自己要旅行多長時間，所以決定像這樣計劃學習時間：

Learn React (and Redux) while reading You Don’t Know JavaScript.

在閱讀不懂JavaScript的同時學習React(和Redux)。

Get much better at express and learn MongoDB.

更好地表達和學習MongoDB。

Make something with the skills I’d learned.

用我學到的技能做點事。

Learn other things.

學習其他東西。

I did this for a very good reason. If I ended my travels after three months and had completed #1 but was still part way through #2, then I would still be able to apply for mid-level developer jobs — they’d just be limited to mainly front-end jobs.

我這樣做的理由非常充分。 如果我在三個月后結束旅行并完成了＃1的工作，但仍然完成了＃2的工作，那么我仍然可以申請中級開發人員的工作-他們將僅限于主要從事前端工作。

If I did back-end learning first, after 3 months I still wouldn’t be very confident with any front end framework. That would probably be a sticking point for every mid level job. I could try to apply for a back-end only developer role, but they all seemed to want much more experience than I had.

如果我先進行后端學習，那么3個月后，我對任何前端框架仍然不會很有信心。 這可能是每個中級工作的癥結所在。 我可以嘗試申請只有后端的開發人員角色，但是他們似乎都想要比我更多的經驗。

學習React和Redux，并閱讀《 你不懂JS》 (Learn React and Redux, and read You Don’t Know JS)

I’d done a little bit of React before, using Youtube videos and normal web tutorials, but this time I wanted to make sure that I was learning it properly. This led me to getting the React JS and Redux: Mastering Web App course from Udemy.

之前，我使用Youtube視頻和普通的網絡教程做了過一些React的工作，但是這次我想確保自己學習得正確。 這導致我從Udemy獲得了React JS和Redux：掌握Web應用程序課程。

This course was brilliant, and the little bit of experience I had with React helped a lot, but I had no experience with Redux. By the end of this course, I felt like I could have built a pretty complex website and was confident with both the syntax and formats of React and the data control of Redux.

這門課程很棒，我對React的一點經驗幫助很大，但是我對Redux沒有任何經驗。 在本課程結束時，我覺得我可以建立一個非常復雜的網站，并對React的語法和格式以及Redux的數據控制充滿信心。

This course took me about 2 weeks to complete, but I was working on it for an hour or 2 once or twice a week. I was on holiday in Asia so this wasn’t my main priority.

這門課程花了我大約2個星期的時間，但我每周要花一兩個小時進行一到兩個小時的學習。 我在亞洲度假，所以這不是我的主要任務。

As well as working on the course when I had my laptop, I read my way through the last few books in the You Don’t Know JS series. I stored the online Github version on my phone and read it while I was resting between climbs.

帶著筆記本電腦學習課程的同時，我還閱讀了《 You't Know JS》系列的最后幾本書。 我將在線Github版本存儲在手機上，并在兩次攀爬之間休息時閱讀。

Having gotten some real world experience, I understood a lot more than the last time I tried to read these books. Things like Promises are really hard to understand if you’ve never used them.

有了一些現實世界的經驗，我比上一次嘗試閱讀這些書時了解的更多。 如果您從未使用過Promises之類的東西，真的很難理解。

更好地表達和學習MongoDB (Get much better at express and learn MongoDB)

Now I felt comfortable creating front ends it was time to work on my back end skills.

現在我可以很輕松地創建前端，現在該鍛煉我的后端技能了。

Again I decided to do a Udemy course. I found that because they’re complete packages, it progresses nicely and tends to cover the whole process. Of course you can learn all of the same stuff for free on Youtube or other online tutorials, but they never seem to cover a whole topic quite as well.

我再次決定參加Udemy課程。 我發現，由于它們是完整的軟件包，因此進展順利，并且往往涵蓋了整個過程。 當然，您可以在Youtube或其他在線教程上免費學習所有相同的內容，但是它們似乎從來沒有涵蓋整個主題。

The next question was which course to do. There are free ones and paid ones, short ones and long ones.

下一個問題是該做什么課程。 有免費的和付費的，短的和長的。

I decided to invest in myself and buy a course ($10 is a tiny investment for such a lot of information) and I managed to narrow it down to about 3 courses. They varied in length between 7 hours and 25.5 hours.

我決定投資自己并購買一門課程(10美元對于這么多的信息來說是一筆很小的投資)，然后我設法將其縮小到大約3門課程。 它們的長度在7小時到25.5小時之間變化。

I was tempted by the 7 hour course — I could get it done in a week or two whilst still enjoying my holiday. The 25 hour course would obviously take much longer, but seemed to cover more topics. By this point in the trip, I’d decided that I was going to be traveling for as long as by bank balance allowed, so I went with the 25 hour course.

7小時的課程讓我很受誘惑-我可以在一兩周內完成它，同時仍然享受我的假期。 25小時的課程顯然需要更長的時間，但似乎涵蓋了更多的主題。 至此，我決定在銀行存款允許的范圍內旅行，因此我選擇了25小時的課程。

帶有React的節點：Fullstack Web開發 (Node with React: Fullstack Web Development)

I’ve actually done a full review of this course here, and it’s a great course.

實際上，我已經在這里對該課程進行了完整的回顧，這是一門很棒的課程。

Having done the React and Redux course before, the React stuff was being repeated. So you don’t waste time, you can just skip videos you already know or put the video on 2x speed and “skim watch” for a refresher or to check for any bits of useful advice.

之前已經完成了React和Redux的課程，然后重復了React的工作。 這樣您就不會浪費時間，您可以跳過已知的視頻，或者將視頻以2倍的速度播放，然后“略看”以獲取更新，或者查看一些有用的建議。

The back-end stuff is where this course excels. It covers a huge range of topics including: oAuth, email handling, payments, API key handling, MongoDB, mongoose, and advanced deployment.

后端的東西是本課程的優勢。 它涵蓋了廣泛的主題，包括：oAuth，電子郵件處理，付款，API密鑰處理，MongoDB，mongoose和高級部署。

The reason that this course is so long is that it covers so many topics in such great detail. This is good and bad, but I ended up watching most of the videos at 1.5x speed and pausing it when I needed to.

該課程之所以冗長，是因為它涵蓋了如此眾多的主題 。 這是好是壞，但是我最終以1.5倍的速度觀看了大多數視頻，并在需要時暫停了它。

This course took longer than the first, but I managed to finish it in about 1.5 months.

這門課程比第一門課程花費的時間更長，但我設法在1.5個月內完成了該課程。

我開始寫作 (I started Writing)

At some point, while staying in China, I decided to write an article about how awful trying to do development was in China. It got accepted into the freeCodeCamp publication, and now has 1.6K reads and 791 claps. I was amazed that people read what I wrote and liked it.

在某個時候，我留在中國的時候決定寫一篇關于在中國進行發展有多么糟糕的文章。 它已被freeCodeCamp出版物所接受，現在具有1.6K讀取次數和791個拍手。 人們為我所讀并喜歡的內容感到驚訝。

I decided that I was going to try to write more articles about what I was doing and cool things I find. This also ended up giving me a great talking point when it came to interviews.

我決定自己要嘗試寫更多關于自己在做什么和發現的有趣事情的文章。 最后，這也給了我一個很好的談話要點。

Writing a blog is also a great way to log your progress and allows you to see how you’ve improved.

撰寫博客也是記錄進度的好方法，并且使您能夠看到自己的進步。

用我學到的技能做點什么 (Make something with the skills I’d learnt)

Now that I had all the tools I needed, I wanted to create something with them. I was three and a half months into my travels and expected that I would be able to travel for another one-three months. This meant that I might need to start thinking about jobs soon if I wanted to start ASAP when I got back.

既然我有了所需的所有工具，我想用它們創建一些東西。 我旅行了三個半月，并希望我能夠再旅行三個月。 這意味著，如果我想在回來時盡快開始工作，可能需要盡快開始考慮工作。

To apply for jobs, I needed to update my CV and portfolio. This gave me a great chance to use what I’d learned to build a new portfolio using Node and React.

要申請工作，我需要更新我的簡歷和投資組合。 這給了我一個很大的機會，可以利用我學到的知識使用Node和React構建新的產品組合。

This is exactly what I did. This is the result. As I said before, I’m not a designer, but it works well. I even used a Wordpress API to host blog posts on the page.

這正是我所做的。 這就是結果。 正如我之前所說，我不是設計師，但效果很好。 我什至使用Wordpress API在頁面上托管博客文章。

I knew that the design was awful, so I posted it in a web design review subreddit. I got lots of good advice, most of which revolved around spending the next few months researching and learning the basics of web design.

我知道設計很糟糕，所以我將其發布在了web design review subreddit中。 我得到了很多很好的建議，其中大部分是在接下來的幾個月中花時間研究和學習Web設計的基礎知識。

One bit of advice I did take was to utilize the bootstraps that existed. This resulted in a completely new website, using none of the skills I’d used before, but it does look less garish.

我的建議之一就是利用現有的引導程序。 這樣就創建了一個全新的網站 ，沒有使用我以前使用的任何技巧，但是它看起來確實不那么扎眼。

求職 (Applying for Jobs)

The next place I visited was a remote climbing area in Laos. I assumed that this meant that there was minimal access to power and no wifi. This lead me to leave my laptop in Bangkok for the two weeks I was in Laos.

我參觀的下一個地方是老撾的一個偏僻的攀巖區。 我以為這意味著對電源的訪問最少且沒有wifi。 這使我在老撾的兩個星期里將筆記本電腦留在曼谷。

When I got to the campsite in Laos, I found out that they had 4G! I bought a local sim card (￡2 for 1.5GB and then 89p for each extra GB) and had decent internet access. By this point I knew that I had two weeks in Laos, then about four weeks in China again before heading home. Time to get applying for a job.

當我到達老撾的露營地時，我發現他們擁有4G！ 我買了一張本地sim卡(1.5GB 2英鎊，然后每增加1GB 89p)，并擁有不錯的互聯網訪問權限。 至此，我知道我在老撾有兩個星期，然后又回到中國約四個星期才回到家。 是時候申請工作了。

進展 (Progress)

Over the course of the next one and a half months I applied to well over 50 jobs, had email and LinkedIn conversations with about 25 people, and managed to secure five job interviews for the week after I got back. Most of my interactions were by email, but if someone wanted to call directly then I tried my best to accommodate that (I was eight hours ahead).

在接下來的一個半月中，我申請了50多個工作，與大約25人進行了電子郵件和LinkedIn對話，并在我回來后的一周內設法獲得了五次工作面試。 我的大部分互動都是通過電子郵件進行的，但是如果有人想直接打電話，那么我會盡力做到這一點(我提前了8個小時)。

I think that having an actual conversation is a great way to improve the relationship between you and the other person, increasing the chances that they’ll invite you to interview or recommend you for a job.

我認為進行真實的交談是改善您與另一個人之間關系的好方法，可以增加他們邀請您面試或推薦您工作的機會。

If you don’t feel comfortable having a call or Skype with people then you can stick to emails, but I think you’re missing out on improving your chances.

如果您不喜歡與人打個電話或與Skype通話，那么您可以堅持使用電子郵件，但我認為您會錯過提高機會的機會。

建立更多的東西 (Build More Things)

One of the interviews asked me to prototype what I would do for a company with an awful website and minimal customer service. This was cool as it pushed me into learning about prototyping. I wrote a series of articles on how I prototyped and fleshed out the website. You can see the website here read my articles here.

一次采訪中，我要求我為一家糟糕的網站和最少的客戶服務的公司提供原型。 這很酷，因為它促使我??學習原型設計。 我寫了一系列有關如何原型化和充實網站的文章。 您可以在這里看到網站， 在這里閱讀我的文章 。

The last thing I did on this was to create a chat bot for returning orders. I had to learn about the workings of chat bots and it took me about a week to get a decent working version. This was a massive factor in me getting the job.

我做的最后一件事是創建一個聊天機器人來退回訂單。 我不得不了解聊天機器人的工作原理，花了大約一周的時間才能得到一個不錯的工作版本。 這是我獲得這份工作的重要因素。

面試 (Interviews)

Now that I had these five interviews lined up, I had to convert them to job offers.

現在我已經安排了這五個面試，我不得不將它們轉換為工作機會。

制備 (Preparation)

I’ve written articles about preparing for a JavaScript interview and mastering the interview process. I made sure I ticked every box.

我寫了有關準備JavaScript采訪和掌握采訪過程的文章 。 我確保我在每個方框中打勾。

I knew all the points I was wanting to emphasise, how to answer the questions about my weaknesses and what each company did.

我知道我要強調的所有要點，如何回答有關我的弱點以及每個公司的工作的問題。

面試 (The Interviews)

I’ve always been good at interviews, even though I’m naturally introverted. I’ve had to teach myself to act more extroverted and engage with the people interviewing me. If you find yourself acting shy and reserved in interviews, I recommend finding a book on emotional intelligence and ways to act more confident.

我一直很擅長面試，即使我天生內向。 我不得不教自己要表現得更加外向，并與面試我的人交往。 如果您發現自己在采訪中表現得害羞并有所保留，我建議您找一本有關情商和如何表現出自信的書。

I had tech tests at three quarters of the interviews (having done the other two online) and my preparation paid off. There were small slip ups, but I talked through my thinking and finished all of the tasks well.

我在四分之三的面試中進行了技術測試(已經在線完成了另外兩個)，我的準備也得到了回報。 有一些小失誤，但我暢所欲言，并順利完成了所有任務。

報價和談判 (The Offers and Negotiating)

From my first three interviews, I had two offers. After the fourth interview I knew that they weren’t the company for me, so let them know I wouldn’t be considering an offer from them. If you are ever in a similar situation, try not to lead them on if you know you’re not going to accept an offer from them.

從前三個采訪中，我有兩個提議。 第四次面試后，我知道他們不是我的陪伴，所以讓他們知道我不會考慮他們的提議。 如果您遇到過類似的情況，如果您知道自己不會接受他們的報價，請不要牽著他們。

Now I had offers from two companies who were very keen to hire me. It was time to negotiate. I’ve never been great at negotiating or asking for more, but I read a few articles and went for it.

現在，我收到了兩家非常想雇用我的公司的錄用通知。 現在該進行談判了。 我從來都不擅長談判或要求更多，但我讀了幾篇文章后就去做。

You might think to yourself: “well, I don’t want to set high expectations, and the offer is already generous, so I ought to just take it.”

您可能會想：“ 好吧，我不想設定很高的期望，而且報價已經足夠了，所以我應該接受它。 ”

You might think to yourself: “well, I don’t want to set high expectations, and the offer is already generous, so I ought to just take it.”No. Negotiate.

您可能會想：“ 好吧，我不想設定很高的期望，而且報價已經足夠了，所以我應該接受它。 ”“ 不議。

Or maybe: “I don’t want to start off on the wrong foot and look greedy with my future employer.”

或者也許是：“ 我不想從錯誤的腳步開始，對我的未來雇主感到貪婪。 ”

Or maybe: “I don’t want to start off on the wrong foot and look greedy with my future employer.”No. Negotiate.

或者也許是：“ 我不想從錯誤的腳步開始，對我的未來雇主感到貪婪。 ”“ 不議。

“But this company is small and — “

“但是這家公司很小，而且-”

“But this company is small and — “No. Shut up. Negotiate.

“但是這家公司很小，而且-“ 不。閉嘴。 談判。

From Ten Rules of Negotiating a Job Offer. I recommend reading it if you’re applying for jobs.

從談判工作的十大規則談起 。 如果您正在求職，我建議您閱讀它。

I definitely didn’t do this perfectly (or even that well), but I did do a few things that strengthened my hand. I had two equal offers, but I had a preference for one company. I wrote myself a little script and (after some breathing exercises to calm myself) I called the director of my favored company.

我絕對做得不好(甚至做得還不錯)，但是我做了一些使我的手增強的事情。 我有兩個相等的要約，但我偏愛一家公司。 我給自己寫了一個小腳本，(經過一些呼吸練習以使自己平靜下來)，我打電話給我最喜歡的公司的董事。

Hi Dave. I’m calling to give you an update on where I’m at. Thank you for giving me an offer, I’m glad you thought that I would be a a great fit in the company too.

嗨，戴夫。 我打電話給你我的最新情況。 謝謝您給我要價，很高興您認為我也很適合這個公司。

I’ve had another really strong offer and I’ll be making my decision this weekend, letting you know by Monday at 12pm.

我還有一個非常強勁的報價，我將在本周末做出決定，在星期一中午12點之前通知您。

It didn’t quite end up going exactly like that, but it helped a lot. I thanked them for the offer, told them a deadline for making the decision, and asked for an improvement in the offer without just asking for a higher wage.

最終并沒有完全像那樣，但是它起到了很大的作用。 我感謝他們的提議，告訴他們做出決定的最后期限，并要求改善提議而不只是要求更高的工資。

摘要 (Summary)

I found out what I needed to get the jobs I wanted. I used this to create a plan and then used paid online courses to speed up the learning process.

我找到了我想要的工作所需的東西。 我用它來制定計劃，然后使用付費在線課程來加快學習過程。

I applied to loads of jobs and got five interviews. I negotiated the offers from the two companies I liked the best.

我申請了很多工作，并接受了五次面試。 我通過談判達成了我最喜歡的兩家公司的報價。

I’ve been working at MissionLabs for 2 weeks now and I’m loving it!

我已經在MissionLabs工作了2周了，我很喜歡它！
