I worked in online content in varying capacities for more than a decade before I made the shift to software engineering. While my ability to communicate verbally and in writing were early helpers as I completed this transition, the lessons I learned from editorial life were also surprisingly helpful. It turned out that years of workshopping stories, trading edits, laboring over drafts, and seeking buy-in and input are directly applicable to surviving and thriving in code reviews.
