Proper Care And Feeding Of Jr. Developers

A presentation at DevNexus 2019 in March 2019 in Atlanta, GA, USA by Valarie Regas

Jr. Devs require more than just a job; they need help from YOU. More than just a weekly coaching session, or an occasional email with feedback. This talk will focus on actionable tasks which can be implemented by mid- and Sr. Devs to help their Jr. teammates be more effective and efficient team members.
