Career-Changing Developers, Developers All the Same!
summary
Short intensive bootcamps train career-changers in git, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, basic backend concepts, testing and frameworks to produce hireable developers. With a backdrop of 50–60k unfilled developer jobs in France, the talk presents a ramp-up path where a new hire starts on an existing front-end, adds features, then takes on gateway work across microservices, becoming autonomous in about three months and fully integrated by six.
