roxy23··on Ask HN: Confused programmer looking for career advice
Thanks for your answer! What I meant when I wrote I'm not ready is that I'm probably not ready to start my own company. But I'd love to work in a more startup-like environment. The main problem is how to escape my current position ("boring" internal business software development) and find something more "exciting". I find it kind of hard to make that transition and I'm asking what to focus on to make it easier...

Yes I am, but the results are not good. I got some interviews however but my CV probably looks best to companies that I'd not like to work for (internal enterprise development).

Thanks for your answer! It's true that I don't really know where I'd like to be and that I should figure that out. But I know where I don't want to be anymore (that's where I'm right now) - I don't want to be developing "boring" internal enterprise software that no one really cares about. I'd like to work in a more product-like and startup-like environment and I feel it's pretty hard to make that transition. (probably because of my past work(no public work to show), not enough networking and slow job market)
