Seeking Advice on Helping 150 Learners on Our Developer Community Secure Jobs
2 by gidbecxa | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Our French-speaking developer education platform has been growing steadily since we started last October, but we wanted to kick things up a notch and see if we could attract more learners. We decided to try a direct marketing campaign and set a goal to get 100+ sign-ups to our community on WhatsApp in just one week. We reached out to our WhatsApp groups in our network, targeted online media/publications ads, and made posts on Facebook and Telegram groups. To our surprise, we hit our goal in just 4 days! Now, we've seen 150 join our community. We were thrilled to see so many people interested in our platform and excited to start their developer career journey. Now that we have a community of eager learners, we want to focus on helping them achieve their career goals. We know that finding a job in tech can be tough, especially for those who are just starting out. We'd love to hear from the Indie Hackers community on any advice or resources that could help our learners land internships or entry-level positions. We believe in the power of mentorship and community support, and we're excited to be a launchpad for several successful developer stories. Please advice us.
