The "React Job Simulator" is finally out ๐
Years ago, I wished for such a resource. I had no idea what production code looks like or how professional teams work. I didn't get interviews or was rejected as "too junior"
So I created RJS... (1/x)

Great new article from @girlsintocoding about the shortage of tech talent, read on for more...
Companies in multiple industries are crying out for more engineers, graphic designers, and electricians. Yet many of these companies could provide the answers to these talent shortages by working closely with schools, tech education organisations, and young learners.
Don't forget to check out our latest Girls Into Coding article "Business-Powered Education: How Tech Companies Can Re-energise STEM Education ". To learn more, link to the article here ๐๐พ bit.ly/3xkPJba

One of the most annoying, rude and inacceptable issue with most of the current services, social media or apps is the fact, that they block or ban you, without giving you exact reason for it and without any accessible and helpful appeal process. Fu.k this! ๐คฌ

A wonderful message from Zoeโs mum. Zoรฉ is a 14-year-old student who joined the Girls Into Coding Community a couple of years ago. She has a strong interest in activities which have been traditionally male-dominated: football is her first love, but also STEM! She is a Chelsea FC Academy Player (U14s), captains the Kent U14s football team this season (2023-24), and was recently selected in the England U15 Schoogirls' official Squad where she plays as a forward. โฝ๏ธ
At Girls Into Coding, we love to celebrate the achievements๐ of our community members and see them flourish as they get involved with the Girls Into Coding mission on several levels.
In Zoe's case:
โ
She's participated in virtual & face-to-face workshops
โ
Provides valuable feedback & insights to help shape the GIC offering โ
Eloquently delivered a talk accompanied by a Q&A session during a GIC event
โ
And has even assisted the Girls Into coding team through mentoring & supporting other girls.
We are confident that in the not-too-distant future, Zoe will seamlessly take on the role of delivering her very own workshop for Girls Into Coding. ๐ฆพ
๐ฅSeeing our program's positive impact on these girls is truly priceless. Through our initiative, these young girls not only acquire digital and making skills but also enhance their confidence in technology and engineering environments. This current generation holds the potential to bridge the gender gap.
Join us in our mission to create more meaningful changes like these! Support us in providing more hands-on opportunities to empower more girls into Tech and Engineering.

If the purpose of education is to score well on a test, we've lost sight of the real reason for learning.
