The current #DevRel recruitment situation is making me seriously consider I made a huge mistake in my career choice.

I have no clue what to do now in life.

@hamatti developer? I’d honestly likely be happier 😄

@anderseknert Writing code isn't my strong suit. I'm good at building small demos and hobby stuff but doing full-time production stuff I'm not great at.

@hamatti like most developers then :)

@hamatti but kidding aside, how long have you worked on large production code bases? It’s certainly something that takes a long time for most to be comfortable with. Orgs with autonomous teams and microservices might be a good way in.

@anderseknert Almost none at all - meaning I don't have experience or skills that would be something that companies would like to hire for.

@hamatti I’m not so sure. Developers with “devrel skills”, ie those great with DX, docs, social connections, etc… are often valued much higher by orgs than what one might expect. You’ll find a way.
