I've had several people ask me how they could become a mobile developer so I invited on Dave, an iOS Developer, to share his journey. While he attended a coding bootcamp, he also laid out a plan for how he would go about it with the self-taught path as well.  I hope this helps!

Questions:
0:00 - Intro
1:05 - How Dave become an iOS developer
14:57 - Is mobile development entry-level friendly?
20:22 - How’d you even find your internship role?
26:01 - Should you learn a native language or just learn something like React Native?
30:28 - Did you really need the coding bootcamp in order to become a mobile developer?
33:08 - If you were to have gone the self-taught path, what resource(s) would you have used?
38:54 - What were your first couple of professional mobile developer positions like?
46:36 - Do you ever think about what it would be like if you never became a mobile developer, and just stayed in your old industry?
49:10 - Where you can reach Dave if you have more questions
