Last night over a few^W^Wseveral^Wmany drinks, a group of us got to talking about the state of Ruby in Australia.
Some of the points raised were: - there are a lot of companies looking for Rubyists - most of those companies are looking for mid - senior developers - it is very hard to break into the market, but once you're established, work is much easier to find - very few companies have coherent strategies for hiring, developing and retaining juniors and grads - the difficulty companies experience in hiring mid - senior Rubyists may put them off Ruby as a technology My (vague, beer-attenuated) recollection is that some folks are already working on this problem, and I'd love to help out. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
