I am a software developer and have started working since few months only. I knew just coding wont be enough and to excel as a software engineer you need to be good in everything related to software develepement. Most of the stuffs mentioned are helpful. Understanding old code is kinda boring though and working with tools like ut automation tools, new compilers and searching for existing library functions always play with my patience. But these things need to be improved. Thnx a lot! Very clearly mentioned basil. I am a software developer and have started working since few months only.

I do not have a technical background, but needed to help a client with a job description for software developers. Your article was great for that purpose. Thank you. I also quoted your website as the source on what I provided to my client. Found your article the most helpful one of the 20 I reviewed.

I think the desire to constantly learn is even more important. I wrote a post about it on my own blog after read this post and a few others.

I’m quite experienced programmer and found it extremely difficult to evaluate myself as software developer. Your post made me aware of my weaknesses and strengths. I can't wait to share the link with my team. Man, I wish I knew this all 5 years ago! Many Thanks. Post over a year old and I’m still finding it the best point to start self-assessment.
