Top Frontend Developer Mentors at Preplaced

Why get a frontend developer mentor?

Having a front-end mentor will be a game-changer in your career for several compelling reasons. It's not just about learning how to write code or create visually appealing user interfaces; it's about accelerating your growth and gaining valuable insights that will set you apart in the competitive world of web development.

Bagging top front-end developer positions today entails having a combination of:

  • Knowledge of popular frontend libraries and frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.js is a big plus.
  • Knowing how to create responsive designs that work well on different devices like phones, tablets, and computers. 
  • Coding skills that work on various web browsers like Chrome, Firefox, and Safari without problems.
  • Knowing how to use version control systems like Git
  • Problem-solving and teamwork skills

Apart from the skills, your personal projects, portfolio, and networking skills also play a big role in landing top tech jobs

How will having a front-end mentor help you develop front-end developer skills ?

  • They will help you know which libraries and frameworks are most important, so you save time on less important things.
  • A mentor will review your code and suggest ways to make it better. This helps you learn faster and write better code.
  • Mentors will share their "tricks of the trade." These are techniques that will save you time and make your work look more professional.
  • Mentors have seen real problems and challenges at work. They will tell you how to solve these problems because they've been there before.
  • Sometimes, this tech world will be tough. Having a mentor to support you and encourage you will give you the confidence to take on big, challenging jobs.

Apart from mastering front-end website development , interview preparation and job search skills are also important! Your mentor will help you practise answering technical front-end developer interview questions . They will ask you common interview questions and help you understand how to answer them well.  They will also simulate a real front-end interview experience , asking you questions, and giving you feedback afterwards. 

Your mentor will review your resume and suggest improvements. Sometimes, mentors know about job openings or will introduce you to people in the industry who are hiring. If you're applying to a specific company, your mentor might know about that company's culture and expectations. This inside information will help you tailor your application and interview approach. Having a front-end developer mentor will give you an edge in front-end interview preparation and job hunting. 

They provide guidance, practice, and connections that you will not have on your own, making the job search process smoother and increasing your chances of landing a great job. With Preplaced’s 1:1 mentorship , you get help with complete preparation, all in one place. You will choose expert mentors from top tech companies to mentor you for your dream role. For example, you will choose to get mentored by Google front-end developers, Amazon front-end developers, Microsoft front-end developers , etc.

Preplaced mentorship isn’t similar to doing a course. There is no fixed module or syllabus to follow. Think of it like having a personal guide. You will get help with all career-related issues you’re facing. 

Your mentor will suggest resources to study, assign you technical projects to complete, set up mock interview sessions, and even train you 1:1 on a skill. The nature of your sessions is hyper-personalised and will change from person to person based on their skill level and career goals .

We, at Preplaced, don't impose on a mentor’s preferred mentorship style and a mentee’s career requirements. Every person is different and has different needs.

This is what 1:1 personalised mentorship is all about. It’s the only path to true career success. Know more about how long-term mentorship works at Preplaced.

Anyone who wants to:

  • Learn frontend development from scratch
  • Switch to a tech job from a non-tech background
  • Level up their frontend development skills for better job opportunities
  • Practise technical interview questions with a pro
  • Crack MAANG interviews
  • Need help with job search and application
  • Just have an expert opinion on their goals

In short, Preplaced frontend development mentorship is for anyone who needs the help of an expert in their career journey. No matter your goals, Preplaced mentors have you covered.

Whatever fits your goals will be the ideal duration for your frontend development mentorship. The number of weekly and monthly sessions and the total mentorship duration will be decided based on your career goals by you and your mentor. The overall duration of your 1:1 mentorship could be one month, three months, six months or more—your mentor won’t leave your side till you’ve accomplished your goals. 

Ideally, we recommend our mentees be consistent with their preparation journey for at least two to three months to get the most out of this mentorship experience. Discuss the details of your mentorship over a trial call with your mentor. Read this to know how to make the most of trial sessions.

Courses lack:

  • Personalisation,
  • Interaction and feedback, 
  • practical exposure to skills, 
  • and the ability to keep you accountable and motivated throughout.

1:1 mentorship works differently. With mentorship, you work with a skilled mentor already doing what you aim to do in your career. They know what it's like to be where you are today and will map out a detailed pathway for you to follow to succeed in your career. It cannot get more personalised than that.

They'll be there for you every step of the way. Be it learning frontend development skills, applying them practically, preparing for frontend development interviews, networking in the industry, or looking for jobs . They will help you through it all. All the while keeping you motivated and consistent and providing you with a wise yet friendly listening ear. Read this detailed guide on how 1:1 mentorship differs from online courses.

If you wish to receive help with interview preparation and job search, absolutely yes. With mentorship, you will not only learn and polish your frontend development and soft skills but also get complete interview guidance along with job search support.

Your mentor will conduct mock interviews, to best prepare you for the most challenging interview questions you will face in the real interviews.

You will also get insider secrets to resume building for your role and networking advice. If your mentor is impressed with your skills and potential, they’ll also be happy to refer and recommend you to their current organisation and professional network.

Mentorship is for everyone: freshers, pros, and even absolute beginners. So, if you need to learn frontend development from scratch, your mentor will help you with that. 

They'll tell you where and how to learn, what resources to choose, what platforms to practise on, and what your upskilling roadmap should look like.
