I'm a month into on-boarding for my new job and I haven't even set up my dev environment yet. Been doing generic training since June 1st. Felt like I've stolen a month of salary. But that's probably going to change quickly, KT sessions are setup for next week.

I been f'in about.

I tried some halfhearted stuff and I'm back at square -1.

What is the direction, I'm lost and would really appreciate some pointers. I keep losing focus and getting overwhelmed then giving up.

For the self-taught coders in here, how did you go about updating your resume and apply for jobs especially if you don't have actual work experience doing programming?

Shouldn't this be in the IT thread?

My plan is to work on a bunch of personal projects, maybe do a couple free projects, find some freelancing work, and couple all of that together as years of experience. I already have some experience managing websites so I'm just gonna create some more and hopefully land a decent web development job.
