Retooling

Category Growth, Learning, Retooling
Tech moves fast, there's no question. New languages, frameworks, ecosystems--it all develops at breakneck pace. It is simply impossible to keep up with all the things. Most of the technologists I know find something to deep-dive into, but also try to keep a pulse on what the broader community is doing. To make it a career, it's almost required to find a groove and rock it for a long time. Time spent and code written (and tested and debugged and refactored) is what allows deep context, which is what defines an effective developer. But as it goes, the tech landscape changes, clients (internal or external) require new shiny things, previously developed deep-context is no longer relevant, and the meaning of life is lost forever! (Too dramatic? Maybe it's just me? I digress...) When it's time to retool, do not lose heart! You did it once (or twice, or thrice), you can get back to being (and feeling) productive.

Get Paid For Networking (Referrals FTW)

Category Marketing, Networking, Referrals

In August of 2017, we celebrated our twentieth year in business. It has been quite a journey and a lot has transpired over the years. We’ve learned a lot, one of the biggest lessons we continue to learn each day is that networking is a critical component of a thriving business. We have been fortunate over the years to connect with so many in the development community that we have learned from, worked together with, and ultimately developed close relationships with. Early on we implemented a referral program to reward those that sent business our way. So, I thought I would tell you more about how that works so you can network with us and get paid too!
