I plan on having gone to at least 4 interviews and potentially having a job offer by the end of Mod 4.
I will be reaching out to employees at companies that seem interesting each week. I will find these employees through linked-in and Meetups.
My focus on learning for Mod 4 is to continue to learn new skills while also prioritizing strengthening the skills I have already learned. Specifically, I want to make sure that my abilities in React/Redux are closer to muscle memory than familiarization.
I have set calendar events for every week in Mod 4 to give me reminders to search jobs, send cold outreach emails, and follow up on previous emails.
I will ideally reach out to Turing alumni about their experiences doing cold outreach and solicit feedback on best practices.
During the first 2 weeks of the Mod, I would like to have sent at least 4 cold outreach emails and had at least 1-2 responses. During the next 2 weeks, I would like to double that outreach and then hopefully schedule at least one interview. During the last 2 weeks, I would like to have 3 interviews scheduled.
Check in with Meg to see if I am on track.
On Monday mornings I will send 2 cold outreach emails based on research that I do on Fridays and over the weekend. I have also scheduled time in the afternoons for research and responses.
Cold outreach emails, interview prep, response emails.
