We are hiring people at $60/hr after taking a 4 month course...:wow:

[Sindicated]

..The game done changed brehs....the whole HR recruitment game done changed brehs.....Cats that never did web development or even went to school for it are taking 16 week courses and when they are done, recruiters are submitting them at $60 an hour.....

Its a good time to get in the game brehs...Im interviewing two females tomorrow.

Im bringing in a cac, next week in at $93/hr because we need .NET with Autocad experience......

shyt is brazy

BrehWhat Courses Im going back to school in August but id like to do this on the side.

I've been looking into machine learning and deep learning on top of web development also (brehs are going to need to get their linear algebra game up). If they want to start phasing out web developers, hopefully I'll have knowledge about AI to keep my job secure.

As someone who attended a bootcamp, I had to code for another year to learn what I do now. Plus there are all types of politics with it: all the females were played as favorites (nearly everyone attending felt that way, I'm not tripping here), even though there were better male coders. Bootcamps are susceptible to BS like that, just like every other place. End of the day, it's still people with biases teaching and running those things.

I just got tasked with forming a team to build a solution around autocad that can be used by people at the bldgas well as field users.


Right now....they have no centralized db....they have no way of knowing if the autocad drawings are up to date....etc

Im bldg the team....and im the quarterback

Interesting. Last year I worked at a company that was doing facility management and they build a nice FM solution with gathered multiple dbs by clients, archives, .pdf viewers, ability to consult data extracted from drawings (using ACA's property sets) and such. This was done with C# and SQL and the breh who built that was really good programming wise. I know a little bit about Java and I want to improve there to be able to gain enough knowledge of that language so I can have a solid basis to learn C# more easily. Considering C# is a programming language that helps with both Autocad and Revit.

Do you follow this dude's blog Through the Interface ? It's interesting the developments he makes above all with VR which will be huge when it comes to architecture/urbanism/design. I'm using sketchfab to display models to clients and this really blows them away to be able navigate into their project.

Good looking on this info..yeah im a core Java giu since 2007.

At this point im pretty much full stack having work on UI and even done Hadoop work.

This is just another level level.

There were discussions about maybe going to revit but leadership ultimately wanted to stay with autocad for now.

Is it because your clients don't want to make the switch ? We've had this issue too at that company. Some (big) clients still using Autocad 2012 so we had to still maintain that licence. And considering AEC objects don't transfer from newer Autocad, we had to always make sure to never mistakenly use the new licences which would have messed up with the data.

IMO, you guys should make the switch to Revit slowly but as soon as possible because BIM will be the place to be in the future even for small operations. And I hope you are using Autocad Architecture. I've been using it for 2 years (was on the normal version until then) and it really opened possibilities when it came to attaching data to buildings.

Anyway :tisalute: to you for landing that project.

Right now salaries are inflated because there is a high demand for programmers in the modern marketplace. Once the bootcamps start pumping all of these candidates out, the lower end of the developers are the ones who will start getting eaten up and seeing their compensation decline. Top tier developers will still be paid nicely due to the fact that they are essentially creating extremely lucrative products with no need to invest in physical infrastructure beyond some desks, computers and a bit of software. If you don't love this, I don't know if I'd recommend you to do this because you're going to have to spend a lot of time outside of work learning. This isn't a field where you can sit on knowledge you learned 5 to 10 years ago. Things change fast.

Unless you're stupid and decide to be a programmer for your state department in which case things rarely move if ever at all. But you might be stuck with one of those 45k middle of road type jobs, in Florida anyway

Well recently I was working a temporary job as a contract manager. That job came to an end last week. Now I'm looking for something more long term since I decided not to apply to law school for Fall 2017.


Which is why trying to become a nurse will not work in my favor


Because I don't want to be close to 100K in debt for a job that has a big chance of not being profitable since the job market for lawyers is oversaturated. And I know there are other things I can do with a JD besides becoming a lawyer, but I did bad on the LSAT this past December. I plan on retaking it.

Exactly why I didn't go to law school. Six years later, I have no regrets.

Coding bootcamps don't teach in depth levels of data structures and algorithms that you learn in a CS or Mathematics course on a college level. Most of them are 'practical programming'.

Nothing wrong with that but it depends on your role. The market is interesting right now. I think there will be a select few of highly specialized people over the next few years who work for the industry in many different companies over the next few years.

But yeah depending on your path you may or may not need a degree.

Better to learn computer science (the theory behind it all) than just a computer programming.

Ok bruh....I'm 10 years in the game and can say that's BS especially if you just want to do web development

I can go into details how that's a bad move
