About Full Stack Engineer Jobs
Full stack engineers work on both frontend and backend systems. They have a broad skill set that allows them to build complete applications end-to-end.
Getting Started as a Full Stack Engineer
Build projects to demonstrate your skills, contribute to open source, create a portfolio website, complete internships or co-ops, earn relevant certifications, network at meetups and online communities, and apply to entry-level positions and new grad programs. Many companies have specific programs for recent graduates.
New grad positions are entry-level roles specifically designed for recent college graduates. They typically include structured onboarding, mentorship, and training programs. Major tech companies run annual new grad hiring cycles, often recruiting in fall for positions starting the following summer.
Most career advisors recommend applying to 50-100+ positions when job searching as a new grad. Quality matters more than quantity though - tailor your resume for each application, and focus on roles that match your skills. Track your applications and follow up appropriately.
New grad software engineer salaries in the US range from $70,000 to $150,000+ depending on location and company. Top tech companies (FAANG, unicorns) offer $150,000-$200,000+ total compensation including base salary, signing bonus, and equity. Startups and smaller companies typically offer $70,000-$100,000.
