Hi I found your post interesting. I'm a frontend dev myself for about 3 years and also with some full stack. I've been on the lookout for frontend engineers at the big4 & I wanted to know how the process is like? Is this CS heavy. If you don't mind can I email you? Thanks in advance.

Also curious about this too.

Bottom line, if you want to earn more get an STEM degree. These Art degrees can't do much with all those fanciness.

This is completely irrelevant and useless.

I am really interested in becoming a mentee.

I am a front-end developer and been coding for about 3 years now, I am currently looking to learn CS basics and transition to a software engineer. I'm looking for a mentor who can guide me through the path and give me useful advice.

Thanks in advance :)

Interesting, thanks for sharing this. Actually, I've been reading up a lot on front-end technologies and I'm pretty vast with them. I made it a habit to read one JS book every two weeks, and later moved to CSS. I only recently added data structure and algorithm to the list because of similar reasons.

Oh well, one thing I try to do is study a lot. I realised even if you could program well, it pays to know the buzzwords and how things under the hood really work, and that's what normally asked during interviews. I made it a goal to read a lot of books on Javascript, HTML5 and CSS3. I recently started learning data structures and algorithms, turns out this knowledge is useful not just as a programmer(sometimes, depending on what you do) it helps you when interviewing at big companies, especially if you want to get into one of the big 4 like I do :)
