hexdevs/Get to Senior Serious Plan (Cohort) 🚀

"I've been stagnating as a mid-level developer"

Do you feel like you’re an experienced developer… But not enough to make the jump to Senior?

Are you afraid you’ll be stuck forever as an intermediate developer?

With so many years of experience, it’s gotta be enough to have some Senior-level skills to show for it, right?

Well, not really. You still have tons of technical courses to finish before you even consider calling yourself a “mid-senior” developer.

But just thinking about all those technical courses and books on your to-do list is overwhelming.

It seems the only thing you can do is to keep doing a great job finishing tickets. And hoping your boss notices. 🤷

Are you stuck on projects that aren’t getting you to the “next level”?

If only you could practice Senior-level skills on the job… but you don’t even feel confident raising your hand at technical discussions. Nothing that puts you in the spotlight.

Yes, you do have many years of experience. But if you were taking the lead on challenging projects and making a positive impact on your team, you would be growing so much faster. You just don’t know HOW.

But what if you had endless growth opportunities? What if you could finish every day feeling productive and happy about all the progress you’ve made in your career?

What if you knew exactly how to get your Software Engineering skills to the next level?

Take control of your career and know exactly the next steps to take.

Instead of trying to figure out on your own what you are missing, learn from expert Software developers who got to Senior level and built an admirable reputation.

Imagine leading important projects and delivering highly impactful work. Owning a codebase and being a respected expert. Being someone other developers look up to and want to work with.

Start delivering Senior-level work — regardless of your current title

Imagine sharpening your skills every day. In the job, outside of the job, it doesn’t matter. You’re a lifelong learner: always sharpening your software skills.

Feel challenged, motivated, and supported. Put into practice the strategies other developers have successfully applied to Get to Senior level.

Take ownership of your career and feel supported when embracing the new challenges.

You will be moving up the engineering ladder with a strong skill set, and creating endless opportunities for yourself.
 "With the guidance of this program I was able to steer the ship of my career and really take control.

I am amazed at how much I actually grew. Get to Senior touched on key topics from the perspective of an experienced friend or older sibling. Gotta say it really changed my perspective on career growth.
I’ll take this with me throughout my career journey."

"I've spoken with my manager about what I could do better and what could be my gaps and learned what they expect from me. Turns out I need experience leading projects and there will be plenty of opportunities to do that in the near future.
Now I know what to focus on and it is not what I thought it would be."
