Planet Argon hired two Epicodus graduates as junior Ruby on Rails developers: Abby Smalls and Ana Tighe. I took some time to sit down with them and see how things are going so far. It was great talking to them about their experiences starting as junior developers here. We touched on some interesting points, including company culture, favorite apps, music, and some insights for people interested in development.

I’ve been scouring the internet to find some folks in our fair city of Portland, OR who are willing to talk about their developer experience.
I was lucky enough to connect with Ken Stowell of Metal Toad Media. Metal Toad Media has an agency here in Portland as well as L.A. and San Francisco.
Ken lives here with us in Portland and was happy to answer my questions. I was hoping to learn a little more about Javascript developers and how developer interns like me could find our way into the industry.
