Hello everyone, I am working for a new client of ours that is looking for multiple Ruby on Rails developers. They are a new company that is only a few years old and are offering training to any IT professional that has exposure to Ruby on Rails. I’ve attached a more detailed description for anyone interested. If you are not interested but can offer information that could better our understanding of Ruby on Rails we would love a call. Thanks for you time in reading this and I look forward to hearing from some of you. Warm regards, Megan H.

Hi Megan, I’ve been working on learning Rails since I was laid off about 4 weeks ago. I’ve been reading the book “Agile Web D. with Rails” by Pragmatic Bookshelf and have also been doing the exercises. My prior background is that I’m an expert Perl programmer with many years experience. I’m willing to do almost anything to get into Rails. Please let me know if I should send my resume. Thanks, Jim Anderson ---

Hello, I have quite a bit of experience developing software for IBM midrange servers and I have worked on and off on the side doing web development. I started with RoR about a year ago and created a currently working application for a very important airport (have a non- disclosure signed so I can’t say more). I would be interested in knowing what this company is expecting from the new hire and what are the conditions. Thank you. Pepe On Jan 14, 11:26 am, Megan H.

Pepe, They are expecting their candidates to know JAVA, MySQL, AJAX, SDLC, and XTHML. Be willing to work in a casual laid back environment. Their programmers do not just put their head down and code all day, they go to staff meetings, gather requirements. And with the Ruby on Rails, they are just looking for someone who has been exposed to it for a couple months and that is driven to learn and can pick up quickly, because they are offering a small training session. Please send me your resume if you are interested and also if you know anyone else who could be a good fit because there are 5 open positions. Thanks!
