I came up through the junior developer program and have been at Comet for almost two years.<\/p><h4 id=\"how-did-you-decide-you-wanted-to-get-into-software-development\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">How did you decide you wanted to get into software development?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#how-did-you-decide-you-wanted-to-get-into-software-development\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>I&#8217;ve always had an interest in technology, but in high school there weren\u2019t a lot of avenues to learn programming or something in that arena.<\/p><p>So I did a music degree after high school; music degrees aren&#8217;t the greatest for finding a job. While I was working as a receptionist at a physiotherapist clinic, I did a few free programming courses. I decided it was fun and completed a bachelor\u2019s degree in IT.<\/p><h4 id=\"what-do-you-love-about-working-at-comet\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">What do you love about working at Comet?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#what-do-you-love-about-working-at-comet\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>There\u2019s millions of reasons, including awesome work colleagues. Comet is an awesome environment to learn and grow my skills in, and is a cool product to work on. I absolutely love it here.<\/p><p>The flexibility is really nice too. It\u2019s awesome being able to work from home a couple days a week; and being able to set my own hours, starting early so I can finish early. I very much enjoy the balance.<\/p><h4 id=\"how-would-you-describe-the-team-culture-at-comet\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">How would you describe the team culture at Comet?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#how-would-you-describe-the-team-culture-at-comet\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>Super friendly and super supportive. When you&#8217;re going through the junior developer role you have a mentor developer and mine, Ben Frengley, has answered a billion questions for me. I sat right next to Ben, so was able to ask questions easily. It&#8217;s great to have a dedicated person you can go to, especially while you are learning and before you know everyone\u2019s area of expertise. And everyone else is still happy to help you out as well.<\/p><h4 id=\"youre-the-second-person-to-complete-the-junior-devsupport-to-developer-pathway-what-was-it-like-working-for-support-before-becoming-a-full-time-developer\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">You&#8217;re the second person to complete the junior dev\/support to developer pathway. What was it like working for support before becoming a full time developer?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#youre-the-second-person-to-complete-the-junior-devsupport-to-developer-pathway-what-was-it-like-working-for-support-before-becoming-a-full-time-developer\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>It&#8217;s definitely a good setup. The idea of going from study to jumping straight into a developer role was actually kind of daunting. Having that year to work on some projects while you&#8217;re going through the junior dev pathway, then through support, learning how to work with customers, and getting a good understanding of how the Comet software works was really helpful.<\/p><h4 id=\"how-did-the-role-work-with-splitting-between-support-tickets-and-developer-projects\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">How did the role work with splitting between support tickets and developer projects?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#how-did-the-role-work-with-splitting-between-support-tickets-and-developer-projects\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>Earlier on the role it was mainly working on the support team and understanding what the product is and how it works. I had a development project to work on pretty early because of my study. When support is less busy, you can then work on some developer tickets.<\/p><h4 id=\"any-tips-from-working-in-support-when-you-were-a-junior-dev\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">Any tips from working in support when you were a junior dev?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#any-tips-from-working-in-support-when-you-were-a-junior-dev\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>Just to really get stuck into what you\u2019re working on. If you&#8217;re on a tricky problem try to work it out. But if you&#8217;re banging your head against the wall for too long, ask for help. You\u2019ll find yourself asking lots of questions and know that it\u2019s okay to ask questions.<\/p><h4 id=\"what-did-you-like-best-about-the-junior-dev-pathway\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">What did you like best about the junior dev pathway?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#what-did-you-like-best-about-the-junior-dev-pathway\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>The thing I like best about it is that it eases you into the development role. I feel like you&#8217;re a lot better equipped for it than if you were just chucked right into the deep end. You get a really good understanding of how the product is used and the use cases for it, which is really helpful.<\/p><h4 id=\"what-advice-would-you-give-to-someone-who-wants-to-become-a-developer\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">What advice would you give to someone who wants to become a developer?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#what-advice-would-you-give-to-someone-who-wants-to-become-a-developer\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>When I was looking for jobs, it was a little daunting as I didn&#8217;t have much of a portfolio because I was working full time and studying. I would say if you have the time, build up a\u00a0 portfolio and direct it towards some of your interests. I think that would go a long way in the job hunting process. And if you&#8217;re building up a portfolio you&#8217;re also giving yourself more experience at the same time.<\/p><h4 id=\"what-do-you-like-best-about-your-role-as-a-developer\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">What do you like best about your role as a developer?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#what-do-you-like-best-about-your-role-as-a-developer\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>I love the constant learning and constant challenge. Sometimes the challenge can be tricky, but when you finish a project it\u2019s really rewarding. You constantly feel your knowledge growing, which is cool.<\/p><h4 id=\"what-keeps-you-interested-and-inspired-moving-forward-in-the-field\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">What keeps you interested and inspired moving forward in the field?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#what-keeps-you-interested-and-inspired-moving-forward-in-the-field\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>For me, it\u2019s seeing how incredible some of our developers are at their jobs. Sometimes I\u2019ll ask someone a question and just watch them power through with so much knowledge. So for me, it\u2019s growing towards that goal of being really knowledgeable.<\/p><h4 id=\"do-you-have-any-favorite-projects-that-youve-worked-on\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">Do you have any favorite projects that you&#8217;ve worked on?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#do-you-have-any-favorite-projects-that-youve-worked-on\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>Emoji support in the tickets \u2013 very important. It was a hackathon project.<\/p><h4 id=\"tell-us-more-about-hackathons-at-comet\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">Tell us more about hackathons at Comet.<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#tell-us-more-about-hackathons-at-comet\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>For hackathons we have four or five days where we get to work on something in Comet that we just feel like working on, which is really cool to have a bit of freedom there. Then at the end of the week it\u2019s cool to see what everyone built.<\/p><p>Some of the projects that people work on during hackathons do make it into the software, and sometimes they don&#8217;t because they&#8217;re more R&amp;D or exploratory projects.<\/p><h4 id=\"whats-your-top-backup-tip\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">What\u2019s your top backup tip?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#whats-your-top-backup-tip\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>Test your recovery process. People like to treat backup as \u2018set and go\u2019 and while we do our best here at Comet to make that possible as much as we can, it is important to test your restores and make sure the recovery process works as it should.<\/p><h4 id=\"what-are-some-of-your-hobbies\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">What are some of your hobbies?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#what-are-some-of-your-hobbies\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>Outside of work I like to tinker, I love to try new things. This year I&#8217;ve been making an effort to spend at least an hour at the end of each day on some kind of hobby. I&#8217;ve been learning to do some 3D modelling. Then practicing my trombone, working on music composition, trying to do a bit of game development. And then I also just enjoy going for a nice stroll.<\/p><h4 id=\"you-are-originally-from-christchurch-what-do-you-like-about-living-in-christchurch\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">You are originally from Christchurch, what do you like about living in Christchurch?<a class=\"hash-link\" title=\"Direct link to heading\" href=\"#you-are-originally-from-christchurch-what-do-you-like-about-living-in-christchurch\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u200b<\/a><\/h4><p>Christchurch is in a great location, there\u2019s a bit of everything close by. You can easily get to the ocean and the mountains, and there\u2019s lots of activities. The city also has good vibes, not too hectic.<\/p><h4 id=\"we-know-everyone-at-comet-loves-food-what-are-some-of-your-favorite-vegan-restaurants\" class=\"anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_y2LR\">We know everyone at Comet loves food.
