I got fired after 2 months in my first software development job. What can I
do next?

It doesn't seem like a very friendly workplace.
I have worked at a few companies as a software developer, and in each
instance, I've had about 2 months to ramp up, with no significant
responsibilities (just small projects that require learning about the system
, etc). This really has not much to do with senior vs junior. Senior
developers unfamiliar with the framework and large codebase would still
require about 1 month to get up to speed, and be able to really start
contributing. This is true even at places like Google which has incredibly
high hiring bars.
If they wanted someone to be able to start contributing right away, they
should have hired someone with a lot of experience with the framework
already. They made a mistake in hiring you (not because you are not good
enough, but because you didn't happen to already have a lot of experience
with the framework).
Also, don't worry about asking questions. A workplace where you cannot
comfortably ask questions and have things patiently explained to you is not
a healthy workplace. My very first supervisor was a Technical Director at
Capcom (incredibly busy person), and he still patiently answered hundreds of
my questions (whenever I was able to track him down at least). |
