A comment on Ask HN: With recent layoffs, how would you advise new grads entering the market?. Parent comment
I took a non-tech job for survival money, and in spare time looked for a high paying dev job.
Everyone was pushing me to take an entry level tech support position.
There’s no shame in a survival job, especially if it helps you find a good position.
When I interview, I get asked why I left so many jobs developer (companies went under), but nobody asks why I left my job as a janitor.
