The slides, graphics, TEDTalks, YouTube videos, and books kept me committed and riveted. Don't worry if you're not in software development, I am in biotech and the content is transferable, relatable. The group was very engaged in the Chat exchanging ideas, suggesting additional resources, ideas, opinions, and the wonderful moderators, Ed and Jim, were funny and attentive monitoring/answering Q&A real time. I also signed up for the additional, helpful, Friday work group for small group discussion, networking, and test questions practice. Larry generously shares all of this for free as a non-profit. He's created not only a curriculum but also a Community. The Job Hackers Slack group includes advice on test prep, resume review, job leads, opportunities to pay-it-forward, reading list suggestions and so much more. Highly recommended!
