Description

We had a great question from Twitch chat tonight asking which skills or technologies a student should be learning to feel prepared to apply for jobs. While there are certainly common tools like Git that will be helpful, it's also important to just GO APPLY FOR THAT JOB. If you wait until you "feel" ready, you'll never be ready. Don't follow advice you read online about "you must know these 1,000,000 things or you're not a developer."
