In my efforts to gulp the cool-aid on all things Python, this weekend I uploaded my first package to PyPI. What is PyPI you ask? When you use pip, the default repository used is PyPI. From the official website:
PyPI — the Python Package Index
The Python Package Index is a repository of software for the Python programming language.
Today I participated in the interview process for a candidate senior developer position at OnShift. We are a Python shop, but finding highly experienced developers with Python experience is not necessarily easy in the Cleveland Ohio area.
It’s my opinion that years of experience and education are not the sole indicators. They are merely data points in a much larger picture. I have met many highly educated engineers that can’t come up with practical solutions to simple problems. On the other hand, I have met individuals with many years of experience, but only know one way to do everything.
So, what do I look for?
I have started to embrace all things Python at my new position as a Software Developer at a Cleveland Ohio based company called OnShift. OnShift is a startup that has just over 100 employees and steadily growing customer base in the Assisted Living / Nursing Home employee staffing namespace.
