episode Big Tech Monopolies cover

Big Tech Monopolies

When and Why Should You Leave Your Job? Is the Tech Interview Process Broken?

The idea of working for a single company for 40 plus years and retiring with a pension is a remnant of the past. According to a 2019 study conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), baby boomers held an average of twelve jobs in their lifetime. We can assume that this number will be much higher for millennials and Generation Z!   We've both changed jobs within the past three years and have learned invaluable information from our moves.   Hiring Without Whiteboards - https://github.com/poteto/hiring-without-whiteboards [https://github.com/poteto/hiring-without-whiteboards]   Show Notes: (1:17) - What were we looking for in our first job after college?  (7:16) - When did we feel like it was time to move jobs?  (17:52) - What do we think about the tech industry interview process?

episode Coding Bootcamps vs. College - How To Start Your Tech Career (w/ Tasi) cover

Coding Bootcamps vs. College - How To Start Your Tech Career (w/ Tasi)

Tech has the negative -- rightfully deserved -- connotation of being inaccessible. One of the most common questions we receive relate to how aspiring software engineers are unsure where and how to start their tech career.   Should you major in computer science? Should you go to a boot camp? Should you go the self-taught route?   We can't promise to answer those questions for you, but our special guest Tasi brings with her a unique perspective from attending both a boot camp and college.   Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of college and boot camps, how to choose the right boot camp, Tasi's journey from a warehouse employee to software engineer, and more!   About Tasi: Tasi’s path to tech was not a linear one. Before she started her career as a front-end engineer, she pursued a career in filmmaking and attended college to study screenwriting. Unfortunately, having been unable to afford tuition, Tasi was forced to drop out and was left unsure of the future. A few odd jobs here and there led her to a coding fellowship program where her love for software engineering and the tech industry ignited. She is now a front-end engineering freelancer and tutor as well as a streamer on Twitch!

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
