Who am I: junior, middle, or senior? Just as an existential crisis hits, or it's time for a salary review, almost every front-end developer is looking for an answer to this question. Determining one's grade is a task with many variables and complexities. Let's talk about grades and assessing the competency of front-end developers, as well as the associated pains and uncertainties. Informally, without names or claims, but with enthusiasm and real-life stories. In this episode, we will discuss the following questions: – Can you have the same set of competencies and be a senior in one company and a middle in another? – Who should define the competency framework? – Is the competency framework a panacea? – Can you objectively assess your grade? Guest Speaker: Mykyta Popov – Tech Lead at Solidgate. The event was moderated by: Kateryna Melnyk – Front-end Developer at Howly (SKELAR). Yaroslav Illiashenko – Front-end Developer at Howly (SKELAR).
