Identity Digital Employee Perspectives
Give us a snapshot of what you do to stay on top of your engineering knowledge and skills.
I primarily use online videos and, occasionally, books to stay up to date in skills. To keep on top of trends, I subscribe to various YouTube channels and email mailing lists. I don’t have a specific schedule for knowledge and skill-building, but it’s often driven by external factors. For example, if there is something being introduced at work I will often find additional online resources to learn more, even on my own time. And if anything interesting pops up in my YouTube subscriptions or email mailing lists, I will delve more into that.
What are your go-to resources for keeping your engineering skills sharp?
YouTube has been my primary resource for keeping my skills up to date in recent years. In the past I’ve used learning platforms such as Udemy and Pluralsight. However, I found that most of these platforms focus on very long training courses, which I often do not have time to complete. With YouTube, I can quickly find what specific areas I want to focus on and learn quickly, with different perspectives and explanations from many different content creators. Even more recently, I’ve been leveraging AI tools, which have taken learning to the next level, as it lets me focus even more concisely on specific areas I am interested in.
What does the learning culture look like at your company or on your engineering team?
Our company provides paid online training resources and high-quality tools for the team to use, such as JetBrains and AI tools, which has helped tremendously with both productivity and learning.
