Have you ever felt out of your depth, like a fraud, and just guessed/bullshitted your way through the situation, petrified that at any time, someone was going to call you on it? - Mike-Cannon Brookes
In our experience, it’s more important to focus on short-term goals because long-term goals don’t usually pan out in favor of what the current situation demands. Take things one day at a time. As far as setting the right goals is concerned, talk to the people who are responsible for building the community. Discussions help create transparency, and transparency will make setting goals easier.
In 2018, I took a Udacity course in front-end web development and found the community managers to be stellar advocates who were really motivating. I was looking to break into tech, and got inspired and started applying for community-type jobs as a result. I landed my first gig at Khan Academy, where I led and managed volunteer groups for a year before moving onto Quora to oversee writer and power user programs, and am now doing the same at Retool. - Alina Din, Community Manager at Retool
