The January IndyNDA meeting is this Thursday! Join us for a panel discussion on technical screening. Mark Huebner will moderate the discussion with our panelists including Ed Herceg (Robert Half Technology), Dale Brubaker (Interactive Intelligence), and yours truly. Audience participation is encouraged.
Some say companies and recruiting firms are using tests based on incorrect assumptions on how developers do their work. C# and jQuery and JavaScript and VB and the .NET framework continue to offer new capabilities. The complexity has generally not been a problem for you because you make liberal use of IntelliSense, online help, books online, reference books, Google searches, and technical online forums. You know how to quickly find information when you can’t remember specific syntax. So, can you pass that technical screening test? Should you need to be tested? Let’s find out
Don’t forget about the C# and JavaScript SIGs after the main event either. I’m not sure what the JavaScript group is covering but for the C# group Alex Gheith and I will be leading a discussion over a few of the items in chapter 1 of Effective C# by Bill Wagner.
As always registration begins at 5:30 with the main event starting at 6:00. Thanks to our sponsors food and drink will be provided before the meeting.
Please be aware that our meeting location has changed. For January and February we’ll be meeting in the 2nd floor conference room in Parkwood 9. For those that remember when we had meetings in the 5th floor conference room in the same building rest assured, the 2nd floor conference room is better suited to our needs.

I hope to see you there!
