Hi Everyone,

Im starting my new (first real) job tomorrow as a ‘Junior Software Engineer’ in a startup with an Android focus but lots of security as well (fintech). I’ve never worked in an office environment before but I’m a grad and do know how to effectively communicate in person and via email/phone etc. Apparently they have a “standup meeting” every morning and needles to say I’m bricking it a bit! It’s exciting but all the usual stuff is concerning me like adjusting to a new city, not fitting in (in such a small team of 12-15 people) and not being technically competent enough. I’ve read advice that I should be product focussed and not aim to take lots of time writing the most beautiful chunk of code and all that.

Any advice from anyone would be nice, even just so I have something to read to calm my nerves with my morning coffee before I head to the office!
