Career Journey Podcast
All Episodes
One of my childhood fascinations is learning about people and their lives, how they grew and achieved remarkable things in their lives.
I started this podcast to share stories of different web developers. In these interviews, you will meet web developers and learn about their educational backgrounds, career journey, and goal-setting process.
You will also learn how they dream of becoming something and then become following whatever execution process they have followed.

I started this podcast to share stories of different web developers. In these interviews, you will meet web developers and learn about their educational backgrounds, career journey, and goal-setting process. You will also learn how they dream of becoming something and then become following whatever execution process they have followed.
I really try to extract how you decided/discovered what you want to become and how you executed it—dreams, goals, and journeys to achieve them.
Following is the list of questions I ask. Sometimes, depending on the answer, I dig deeper and ask a follow-up question.
- What did you want to become when you were in high school?
- Share your journey from your first job to your current position.
- How do you manage your day? How do you manage your task list/Todos? (Time Management)
- How do you identify your big goals/dreams? And what is your goal-setting method?
