EMPLOYERS: Why can’t I find good junior developers?
Meanwhile…
GOOD JUNIOR DEVELOPERS: Why can’t I find a decent job?
This panel brings together tech leaders, college students, and a professor to share success stories. We will discuss how to find, hire, and nurture less experienced developers so that they get great experience and their employers get great software.
Yes, it is possible. Yes, it is already happening!
P.S. Where are all those junior devs hanging out, anyway? Probably at the companion session on the state of the Junior Dev community in MN!
P.P.S. Looking to interview or be interviewed right at MinneBar? Come to the https://sessions.minnestar.org/sessions/659!
Paul fell in love with programming at first sight on an Apple ][+ and never looked back. He is a freelance software developer who (mostly) works with Bust Out Solutions, and teaches computer science at Macalester College.
Living a secret double life as a classically trained composer and pianist and artistic director of The New Ruckus, he brings a musician's passion for aesthetics and nuanced detail to the craft of writing software, thus making his bio sound all fancy.
Jeff Lin is the founder of Bust Out, a software design and dev shop in its 16th year of business. He likes ice cream and wants to be a teacher when he grows up.

Graduated from law school in 2012 and worked in criminal defense in the Twin Cities and non-profit administration in Chicago... which turned out to be great preparation for building web apps at Software for Good.
I also manage SfG's Giving Program where we mentor diverse aspiring develops while building custom software for non-profit organizations with ambitious plans to enhance their mission.
