Understanding that every in-person interaction is important

In Chapter 2, we discussed how important it is to leave a good impression in interviews. But the discussion was in the context of getting hired. We should remember that impressing people in person is not just essential for interviews, but also for creating our brand.

Open source contributions, Stack Overflow questions, blog followers, and more are all examples of places where we are required to handle a certain number of interactions with other developers.

Looking forward, these interactions also help us to shape our image in the industry. Sometimes, that single interaction is the only chance we’ve got to show who we are to other developers.

What is the impression that we leave behind? Like every industrial product, our name goes in front of us and is built upon thousands of talks, help sessions, and correspondences.
