Will it be difficult for me to get a job, as developer? At only 18?
I have a passion for web development, and I've been coding for two years now; for the past 6 months I've been coding 40+ hours a week. I've learned how to build React-Redux applications, and Express APIs. I've subscribed to TeamTreehouse and watch MIT Open Courseware lectures. I've even written a few micro libraries for personal use that are publicly on npm.
Just the other day, I got an 'above average' score on my react test on UpWork; I would consider myself career ready. To solidify all of my knowledge, I'm going to the UNC Chapel Hill coding bootcamp (six months) in the fall, and I believe I will do well as I know every technology on the syllabus.
Though I am only almost 19 and I've only been out of high school for one year. I am very worried that although I have the drive and experience, companies won't want to hire me because I am too young. Am I correct in assuming so? If so, how can I increase my chances of being taken seriously by companies here in Raleigh, NC? Thanks in advance, Charles.
