"David Roberts turns your sad trail of past jobs and liked memes into the most powerful advertising tool in your arsenal. 💣 His services are not free - and IMO he does NOT CHARGE ENOUGH. 😒😂❤️ Shoot him a DM and find out how you can start "applying for jobs" while you're asleep in bed. 😁👍 OR ... Just hang tight and watch all of Savvy Coders grads snatch the jobs YOU wanted. 😎"
- David Rodriguez, Program Manager @ Savvy Coders

Nice things developers have said:

"Please listen to David Roberts. His tips and tricks got me two developer jobs" - Brian L."Just to let you know in the past 2 weeks in have had 2 interviews for apprenticeship positions. and have another next week. Your advice is invaluable" - Kiran S."Hi Mr. David. I just wanted to let you know that all of a sudden, since I fixed some of the things (Not All yet) that you suggested, I have gotten a lot of interest. I have had four interviews this last week and got two calls today from recruiters saying that they are setting up interviews with two more companies in the next week or so. I already have two offers, but I will wait and see what the other companies say. Thank you so much for your advice. I will make a public post recommending you to all devs that I can!" - Christian S."The only thing I regret about your course is that I didn't start it earlier" - George A."Standing out in Tech proved to be an invaluable resource for me. With its expert guidance, I was able to organize my online presence, specifically LinkedIn and GitHub profiles. By implementing the book's strategies, my professional image became more polished. It gave me a piece of mind on how to present myself better and what recruiters are looking for. I was looking for some guidance in this area and David Roberts' book delivered precisely what I needed." - Boris V."Oh man, a huge difference in LinkedIn. I don't even have premium and I am back to 3-5 recruits a day. Some company called me today desperate and schedule an onsite interview for tomorrow. Your book has been amazing!" - Tony R."The book is awesome! It does a great job giving context and connecting things that make much more sense when viewed as a whole." - Patrick L."One of the best purchases I've ever made!" - Hruthik R."5⭐️ David's book is insightful, detailed and straight to the point. His no-nonsense approach has made a monumental difference to the way I present myself through my resume, Github and LinkedIn. I plan to read the book several times again until I land my first developer role. Thanks for writing." - Steven B."Just wanted to reach out and let you know I accepted an offer today for my first Junior Frontend Dev role today 😁 Your advice, suggestions and guidance gave me the confidence and persistence I needed to land this so I thank you for what you are doing for people wanting to break in to the industry.” - Matt C."Thank you for all your great advice. After 60+ interviews and 5 offers, I accepted one with absolutely everything on my wishlist, and doubled my current salary!” - Gerard M."Monday I start my first day as a web developer and it was because of my LinkedIn profile. Thank you for everything you do!” - Matt C."I'm finally working with a COOL project :D It’s in great part because of your posts and the chat we had, you made me trust in my value and learn how to show them" - Gustavo W."Thanks alot David, I believe your solid LinkedIn advice was very instrumental here” - Dennis K."I have been getting interviews and recruiters even contact me without me doing a application!" - Jonathan M."I'd like to thank you for the advice you gave me. After the fixes I made based on your suggestions I have gained almost 50 profile views in a few days as well as 15 new connections from searches leading to me." - Eric T."David Roberts is a genius I had a session with him about 2 years ago that change my life on LinkedIn , Anytime I am available for a project all I do is put up my profile banner again, be specific with my role and booom! Recruiters in my dm" - O. Eto"My conversation was very eye-opening with David. I had come in asking for advice on how to job hunt 'the right way,' having no idea what 'the right way' even meant. Not only did he explain how newly graduated Bootcampers are seen in the eyes of a recruiter, he informed me on strategic tactics to get on the radar of senior developers and others who work where they are implementing the same skill set I have acquired. Anyone having doubts, should really give David a listen." - Louisa W."Just a quick hello with a big thanks for the tips you gave me! Recruiters have been contacting ME since just two hours after our call. After our call, I immediately updated my entire LinkedIn profile as well as my Github. I have two initial assessments being sent my way today! Thank you so much David." - Jonathon C."David's advice is absolutely essential to bootcamp graduates, do as he says and you'll land your first job sooner than you know!" - James B."The advice (and book) is paying off, as I’ve had a recruiter reach out to me everyday this week so far, with 2 pre screen phone calls and 4 emails." - Eric O."I have to say it is hands down the most practical information I've heard since beginning my search, and I really appreciate you sharing it with us!" - Natalie D.

About Me

My name is David Roberts and I have been a software developer for over 20 years. Subsequently, I ran multiple international Talent Acquisition teams. I have interviewed thousands of developers, hired hundreds and seen every mistake a developer can make during the job search process. Last year I left my job to help more developers to get the jobs they deserve. This is the core mission of Crushing Digital and my focus today.
