Being able to learn things quickly is an amazing skill to have—even more so for developers because of speed of technology.
Most people change careers 15 times throughout their life. Not jobs, careers! So it’s safe to assume that the average developer will have multiple jobs throughout their career. Each job change has the potential to require different skills.
