Remembering how to listen as a tech community
Have you ever talked to someone who’s not listening to you?
What Software Developers Can Learn From Naruto Uzumaki
I believe that you can learn from everyone even if they’re a fictional character. If you have no idea who Naruto is then you’re definitely in for a treat.
This is another post in a series that I’m writing on what software developer can learn for the lives of others. I’ll cover a mix of both fictional and real life mentors. I wanted to do this more after seeing the reaction from another post on Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Today we’ll cover the character Naruto Uzumaki.

First off, it’s hard to get non-technical jobs at a tech startups. I’m just basing that off of my experience trying to get testing jobs at tech companies.
Software testing is technical but you don’t see job openings for it until the company has at least 20 people. It can be pretty challenging.
It feels like in the early days of a tech startup, most of the open position are technology focused. You’ll see positions for programmers, engineers, data scientists, developer operations, things like that.
There just aren’t a lot of non-technical jobs available. So through basic supply and demand you can see why the jobs are always difficult to get into.
