Bishal, a full-stack developer, shared his Turing.com review and said that he observed huge growth in his communication skills and became a better developer after joining Turing. He also mentioned that developers have a strong sense of community at Turing.

Life before Turing jobs

Based in the beautiful mountain city of Kathmandu, Nepal, Bishal is a Full-stack software developer who was working both as a full-time employee as well as a freelancer.

Top professionals like Bishal need steady progress along with stability and security to thrive. Bishal realized this fairly early. "I was not growing very quickly in my 9 to 5 job. Although I enjoyed my work, I did not like this fact one bit," he recalls.

"After much reflection and brainstorming, I set myself two career goals. The first one was to become a successful Fullstack Developer. The second, become a top-notch project manager somewhere down the road, maybe 10 or 12 years from now," he shares.

"Though both of those goals were definitely achievable in Nepal, I still think that the tech industry is in an embryonic stage here. And I wanted to work with the best people from all over the world," he says.

How did he learn about Turing US software jobs?

While pondering whether to relocate or pursue a higher degree, Bishal had a revelation. He came to the understanding that what he was really looking for was a good, stable remote job.

"The internet is more like a portal to the entire world. I can be living in Nepal and working with the best people from Silicon Valley. And that's how I came across Turing. I didn't have to apply for any other job once I became a part of this organization," he says.

How has his journey with Turing.com been so far?

Remote work offers a healthier work schedule that gifted professionals like Bishal can fully exploit. "I work four hours at night and the rest during the day. I work for a U.S.-based company, and we have a really strong and diverse team. The developers range from New Zealand to the USA and everything in between," he says.

"I have already observed huge growth in so many areas of my life, starting from improved communication skills to being a better developer and also being aligned with my ultimate goal!" he exclaims.

What's his take on Turing developers?

"I have nothing but appreciation for Turing. It's just so amazing to see how much they care about us as developers. They provide timely payments and keep us in the feedback loop with the client even after we get the job. At Turing, we have a strong sense of community," he mentions.

What's the final verdict?

The Nepal-based developer shares his gratitude with the following words: "Looking back at the past few months of my life, especially with the ongoing pandemic situation, I don't know how I could've written a better script. And finally, I want to thank Jonathan Siddharth and everyone at Turing for bringing Silicon Valley to Nepal. Thank you!"
