I'm confident that I'm good enough to land a job in this market. Beyond that, it's hard to say. As the least experienced developer on my team, I feel like I'm able to consistently contribute at a level beyond what's expected of me. I coast through most programming-intensive courses at my university.
My goal over the summer is to make significant contributions to open source, which I just don't have time for now with my schedule. Going to meetups is a very good idea. Is there a good way to find out about these other than just Googling "ruby meetup nyc"?
- eshvk 14y agomeetup.com has a good mix of tech meetups happening in NYC and the bay area.
- mwsherman 14y agoYes, meetup.com is good. Etsy also has "Code as Craft" nights, those are fun. There are co-working spaces like General Assembly, New Work City and Projective Space which are, naturally, techie-dense. Startup Digest is a mailing list for the week's events: http://startupdigest.com/ http://startupdigest.com/
- mnutt 14y agoIf you're looking for ruby meetups, come to NYC.rb. (http://www.meetup.com/NYC-rb/ http://www.meetup.com/NYC-rb/) The talks are usually very good and it's a great group of people.
