The last year or so, I’ve been an IT consultant, and the project I’ve worked on uses JavaScript and jQuery to modify UI’s.

I know jQuery is pretty old, and I’ll soon be looking in my area for a front-end Dev job that specializes in using a “modern” framework. I know some React, but I think most of the openings around me are for Angular.

Come application & interview time, how do I make myself look like a valuable asset with the experience I have?

    Make sure your javascript skills are top notch. There are a lot of people out there with react/angular/Vue on their cv but who have crappy raw javascript knowledge. A decent employer will snap up a good javascript dev and train them up.

    Thanks - I was hoping that’s what I’d hear. I figure if I know the basics I can figure anything out.

    That being said — what’s a good test of my skills? What should I be able to do well in vanillla JavaScript that would prove my knowledge of it?
