This is a great article about Omoloro Oyegoke, an engineer for Konga Online Shopping Ltd. Most interviews with CS engineers try to really dive into the nitty gritty about the benefits of learning to code — Omoloro’s refreshing take is that he enjoys it and he had an aptitude for it.
2. It’s a great way to refresh your career!
This article is about Kristi Riordan, COO at a coding school in New York City. She speaks to the career benefits that professionals can get from switching to a more technical career and from simply learning to code to help them in their current roles.
