5 Unexpected Ways to Work on Your Soft Skills
When you’re learning to code to become a software developer, there are plenty of ways to practice concepts and frameworks outside of our courses and paths. Maybe you complete a project, build your portfolio website, or work through a code challenge, for example.
The soft skills that you need as a developer — like being able to present ideas impactfully or strategize with stakeholders — are equally important, but a lot harder to practice. Even as an entry-level developer, you might be asked to reverse engineer a codebase, identify and solve a bug, or learn a new framework to meet a project’s requirements. All of this requires technical chops, of course, but career success is more than just technical skill development. You need to be able to solve problems, communicate effectively, and pay attention to details to get a job done.
