from the ask-hn dept.

Hello everyone i‘m a soon to be finished computer science student with internship experience in full stack web dev, some personal projects and some team projects on uni and I am based in Germany and want to work in Switzerland. How do I apply for junior positions? What do I have to mention and what should I pay attention to?

Thanks in advance.

I'd personalize the reach out. What I suggest is to find out the tech stack the company is using, find some issues related to the stack and then reach out to the hiring manager with personalized message. Maybe even build a product or solution that addresses some of their issues. In my case, I found a vulnerability with how their application connects to the database.
