WIWO #14: Course Launch Earnings, Business Evolution, Zero To One, WWDC Thoughts & More
In this episode of What I'm Working On, I discuss how the launch of my latest course, "Dub Dub Grub" went and how that led to me being burnt out. I also discuss what I'm going to focus on for the rest of 2021 with CreatorView and how that wasn't an easy decision even though it's REALLY what I want to do. I give my thoughts on WWDC 2021 among many other topics.

Chris ended up getting this job and we did further podcast episodes discussing his first 30 days on the job. Now we're checking in with Chris after a year and a half to see how it's been going.

How I Use Twitter to Hire Developers & Designers - Tips For You
In this show I discuss how I commonly use Twitter to find and hire developers and designers for small startups or independent contracting/freelancing projects. The tips in this episode are not universal job searching advice. This is coming from the lens of when there is a single person (not an HR department) doing to hiring, which is often the case at startups. Hope you enjoy!

Common Beginner iOS Dev Mistakes - From Sr. Developers (Audio from video)
In this episode I talk about a viral tweet that I posted a few weeks back. I asked developers to share a beginner mistake they had when they FIRST started learning iOS development. I got answers from all kinds of well known developers from major companies. It was a lot of fun to hear that we all start somewhere. My goal for this video was to show beginners that even very senior developers made the same silly beginner mistakes that you are making right now. Again... we all started somewhere. Stick with it.

I'm an Average Developer
My technical skills as a software developer with 5 years experience are average. They're fine. Nothing special, but not bad either. However, I believe I'm a REALLY good overall software developer because of very good soft skills. In this episode I want to discuss that topic for those developers out there who may be self-conscience about their lack (or perceived lack) of technical skills and knowledge. There's a lot more that goes into being a great software developer than just knowing the code.
If you like my teaching style, I've released my first iOS dev course which is all about the take-home project job interview for iOS developers.

Developers SUCK at Marketing Themselves - Let's Fix It!
Last year I hired a Jr. iOS Developer as my replacement at a startup I was working at. I had the opportunity to review over 100 submissions for the position, and I got to see first hand how the vast majority of developers REALLY need some help when it comes to marketing themselves. Better Github repositories, resumes, websites, portfolios, app marketing pages, etc... It all needs works. In this video I discuss some of the thoughts after going through the process of hiring an iOS developer.

Origin Stories #26 - Javi Soto - iOS Engineer @ Twitch
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Javi Soto, iOS Engineer at Twitch. We get to hear how Javi got started at a young age writing HTML and then eventually PHP as well as how the experience of getting CS degree just wasn't for him and why he decided to drop out (hint: already having a developer job helps). Javi also tells the story of how iOS came into his life with the launch of the iPhone in 2007 which eventually led him to start developing for the platform resulting in him making the journey from Spain to Silicon Valley. Javi also gives some great interview tips in this episode. Hope you enjoy!
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

37 Tips for Software Developers
This is the audio from a recent video I did about 37 Tips for Software Developers. This might by my favorite video that I've ever done. I think there is a TON of great value in there. This video was sponsored by Squarespace, so I apologize for the ads in there. They were integrated into the video, so it's tough edit them out.

Origin Stories #25 - Kim Arnett - iOS Dev @ Expedia
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Kim Arnett, iOS developer at Expedia. We get to hear how Kim got her start as well as some insights on changing jobs roughly every two years and how that's pretty common in the tech space. What's especially interesting about Kim is that she is the host of her local meetup and we have a great discussion on the pros and cons of starting your own meetup when the current meetups you want aren't up to par, or flat out don't exist. I hope you enjoy!
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

The Journey #1 - Jeff Lai
In this VERY FIRST episode of The Journey I sit down with Jeff Lai. Jeff has been a researcher for 17 years and is looking to finally make the career change into iOS development. He's been learning iOS dev off and on since 2010 and is finally getting serious about making the change. We talk about how he's struggling with closures, delegates & protocols, networking and more. There's a lot of good advice given in this episode, if I do say so myself :).
The Journey is a series of interviews with aspiring iOS developers from the community where we discuss where they are at in their journey to become an iOS Developer. We talk their stuggles and their successes in hopes to give insights to those of you on this same journey. I also give advice along the way.

Origin Stories #23 - Freddie Ohen - iOS Dev @ Scribd
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Freddie Ohen, iOS developer at Scribd. We get to hear how he got his start by taking the free Harvard online CS course, which led him down the path of a developer bootcamp. After the bootcamp he struggled about a year before he found his first iOS developer job. It's a great story and illustrates the power of sticking with it and completely immersing yourself in development to get that job. Hope you enjoy!
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

Origin Stories #22 - Zack Falgout - Fireside Swift & iOS Dev @ FlightAware
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Zack Falgout, iOS developer and co-host of the Fireside Swift podcast. We get to hear how he "took the long road" to iOS development. By that he means he started off on a completely different career path and then switched to software development later in life. Those types of stories are always near and dear to my heart. We also get a BONUS origin story by hearing about the inception of the Fireside Swift podcast. Hope you enjoy!
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

I had the pleasure of meeting Kristina during all the WWDC festivities so I'm excited to have her on the show.

Now that Kristina is the one conducting the interviews, we also get some great advice for intern and jr. iOS developer interviews. Kristina is also an international speaker, so there's a bonus origin story on how she got started speaking. Hope you enjoy!

Why I Left San Francisco - VLOG Episode
In this vlog I talk about life as an independent iOS developer. Today I'm talking about the reasons why I moved away from San Francisco and Silicon Valley as an iOS Developer to pursue building my own business as a full-time content creator. I talk about needed more space for a dedicated studio as well as some personal reasons for wanting to be back on the east coast.
I love San Francisco and intend on visiting at least once a year for WWDC.

Origin Stories #20 - Chris Conner - iOS Engineer @ VRBO
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with long-time community member and fellow iOS Engineer, Chris Conner. Chris has a very unique origin story since he transitioned from a Product Manager to an iOS Engineer, not only at the same company, but on the same team as well. I wanted to have Chris on the show to share his story to maybe give some inspiration to those out there that are in one position at a company, but really want to become an iOS Engineer. Hope you enjoy!
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

My Origin Story - Intro & Chapter 1 of My Book
In this episode I give a preview of my book, It's Only Crazy Until You Do It: How I Became an iOS Developer by reading the Intro and Chapter 1.

I really enjoyed this episode and hope you do too!

Origin Stories #17 - Stewart Lynch
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Stewart Lynch. I really enjoyed my conversation with Stewart because this episode was a bit different. Steward has been involved in Computer Science since before Computer Science was an official term. We get to hear all about that and how he was an educator which eventually led to him developing with Swift as a hobby. Stewart has 10 apps on the App Store. 10! I got to ask him a bunch of questions about how he manages to keep them all up to date and how much he learned while building all those apps.
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

Origin Stories #14 - Jane Chung - iOS @ Calm
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Jane Chung, iOS Engineer @ Calm. This was a really fun episode because I've known Jane for a long time now, as she was my partner throughout the iOS Development bootcamp we did back in 2015. It was fun to look back on the app we built together during that bootcamp. Jane then moved on to be one of the fist full-time mobile engineers at Coinbase where she converted the app from Objective-C to Swift and rode the crazy crypto wave of 2017 all the way to Coinbase being the #1 app in the App Store for a period of time. Lots of war stories there... After leaving the crypto space, Jane is getting ready to embark on her next chapter as an iOS Engineer at Calm.
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

The First Month - FINALE - Sage advice for Jr. Devs
Back in January of 2019 I put out a video (link below) asking people who had never had an iOS Developer job to apply for a new position at the startup I'm work at, Aluna. When I started my career someone took a chance on me when I wasn't quite ready, and it launched my career. I wanted to do the same for someone else.
That someone is Chris and we sit down and recap his third week on the job as a Jr. iOS Developer. We talk about his impressions of startup life in San Francisco, what he worked on this week, as well as some thoughts on how having mentorship has drastically increased his skills in just a few short weeks.

Origin Stories #13 - Jazbo - iOS @ Glowforge
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Jazbo, iOS Engineer at a 3D Laser Printer company called Glowforge. I was thrilled to finally get to sit down with Jazbo and hear his story. It was fascinating to hear how he grew up in Jamaica and never touched a computer until he was a teenager. After college he decided he wanted to learn software engineering and started watching videos online, which led to him joining the developer community on twitter. Through this network, he was able to land his job at Glowforge. Be sure to stick around for the end of the episode where we have a great discussion about how people have different hurdles in their path to becoming a software developer.
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

"Full-Time" YouTube Decision - The Deep Dive
I have made the decision to forgo the opportunities at a large company and go "Full-Time" YouTube and content creation. I released a YouTube video on this, but it was a high level overview of how the decision came to be, and what to expect from my channel. In this episode, we got WAY deeper into my thought process on this big decision.

The First Month - Part 3 - SF Startups & Mentorship
Back in January of 2019 I put out a video (link below) asking people who had never had an iOS Developer job to apply for a new position at the startup I'm work at, Aluna. When I started my career someone took a chance on me when I wasn't quite ready, and it launched my career. I wanted to do the same for someone else.
That someone is Chris and we sit down and recap his third week on the job as a Jr. iOS Developer. We talk about his impressions of startup life in San Francisco, what he worked on this week, as well as some thoughts on how having mentorship has drastically increased his skills in just a few short weeks.

Origin Stories #12 - Kaya Thomas - iOS @ Calm
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Kaya Thomas, iOS Engineer at the mindfulness app, Calm. I got to meet Kaya in person a few weeks ago when we both gave talks at iOSCon 2019 in London. In this story we get to hear about how Kaya discovered coding while editing MySpace pages back in the day, which led to her trying out a intro to programming class in college. Her amazing networking led to some key internships at Intuit and Apple, and she ultimately landed her first iOS developer job at Slack here in San Francisco.
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

Origin Stories #11 - Luis Gonzalez - iOS @ Topology
In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Luis Gonzalez about how he went from learning iOS Development on his own for about 2 years to landing his first job. I loved his story because it really speaks to the power of networking. Be sure to stick around for when Luis tells the story about driving 4+ hours from Fresno, CA to attend coffee meetups which eventually led to his first job.
Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.

The First Month - Part 1 - Introduction to Chris Mauldin, iOS Dev at Aluna
Back in January of 2019 I put out a video (link below) asking people who had never had an iOS Developer job to apply for a new position at the startup I'm work at, Aluna. When I started my career someone took a chance on me when I wasn't quite ready, and it launched my career. I wanted to do the same for someone else.
That someone is Chris and we sit down and recap his first week on the job as a Jr. iOS Developer. Check back next week for Episode 2!

90/90 Rule - Don't get caught by this!
What I call the 90/90 Rule of Software Development usually bites new inexperienced developers in the ass. It's the concept that there's the first 90% of building the app... and then there's the second 90%. Let's talk about it.

In this episode of Origin Stories I talk to Mark Moeykens, a fellow iOS developer and YouTuber. We discuss his 20+ year programming career, how that all started, and how he progressed through the changing technological landscape. And of course, we discuss how iOS development comes into play, as well as how and why he started his YouTube channel. Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more. Mark's Twitter: https://twitter.com/bigmtnstudio

From Learning Swift to AR Startup Founder - Allen Wixted's Story
Many of you are at some point in your journey to learn Swift and iOS Development. Most, like myself, did this with the intention of working for a company as an iOS Developer. Well... there's also another way to do this. You can start your OWN company. I wanted to share Allen Wixted's story because he did exactly that. A little over a year ago he started learning Swift and iOS Development so he could start is Augmented Reality startup called No Place Like. In this interview Allen shares his story on how he got started learning Swift, the resources he used, how he networked and launched his startup. No Place Like is now a part of a Google Incubator in Ireland. Check out No Place Like: https://www.noplacelike.co Allen's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allenwixted/ YouTube Version: https://youtu.be/Ohyd5E_g9Xg

How to get your first iOS Dev job - Herman Kayy's story
Herman started with no Computer Science degree and no prior programming experience and got his first iOS Developer job in just under a year. He got inspired by an older video of mine where I tell the story of how I got my first iOS Dev job in 7 months and decided to give it a try himself. Less than a year later, he's now a full-time iOS Developer. Here's his story. YouTube Video Version: https://youtu.be/u8PDgXDhsu0
