Surviving as a Non-Major Developer


#8. How Should I Write My Self-Introduction?


For new graduates, since they lack work experience, the self-introduction is the only way to showcase their efforts and experiences in the IT field. Therefore, you need to logically present the efforts you've made (certifications, academies, portfolios, etc.)

First, create a basic template using common self-introduction items such as growth background, strengths and weaknesses, extracurricular activities, and motivation for applying. Afterward, it's recommended to emphasize the following aspects in each item.


1. Growth Background

It's good to write about how you became interested in development. Instead of writing about your actual growth background, explain how you became interested in development due to ~ and majored in computer science, or how you started studying through academies or self-study.


2. Strengths and Weaknesses

Write about your strengths and weaknesses related to development or company life. For example, you can write that you are meticulous and can develop according to requirements, or that you have a planned personality and can manage development timelines well, etc., related to company life or development. Also, when writing about your weaknesses, don't write about fatal weaknesses (lack of communication, etc.) and write in a way that implies you have ~ weakness but are working on overcoming it.


3. Extracurricular Activities

Write about any conferences you attended or experiences you gained while studying during your college life or studying process. If you have any insights you gained or experiences you applied to projects, write them together.


4. Motivation for Applying

To write your motivation for applying, analyze the business model of the company you are applying to and the skills required for the job description (JD). Then, approach it by writing that your ~ aspect or ~ aspect seems to be a good fit, or that you were motivated to apply because of the company's ~ aspect. Also, when writing about your future aspirations, it's good to include specific timelines, even if they are abstract. For example, analyze the business model within 3 months and develop the ability to develop independently within 6 months. By presenting abstract results with specific timelines, you can build trust.
