About this episode

Chris placed the start of his journey during his first career as an HR professional. We first talked about how blogging put software development on his radar and how "interesting" HR experiences slowly but indeed pushed him to transition toward web development. We explored how he gamed the recruiter systems, applied, and failed his first job interviews. We brushed over communities and how he found his first job. We talked about ADHD and how he transformed his side activities into his full-time business.
