While we have you here - and if we have time...
Question A: What statements have you heard from TSSG alumni about how TSSG helped them?
examples:
"It was a variable in my interview. I was able to talk with high energy about the project I'm ACTIVELY working - more current than a project I closed six months ago"
"I researched and put together a comprehensive presentation on a technology I needed to know more about - then I presented it at the General Meeting and it was critiqued by all the teams. Great!"
"The work of looking for a new position is exhausting. TSSG helped me break-up the week and relieve stress by getting my hands on my keyboard and coding with others."
Question B: What new features do YOU enjoy and consider "Tech- Savvy"?
Question C: Andy mentioned today - 18apr2018 - that "Companies don't do software training anymore, we fill that gap". Was that part of the purpose for the founding of TSSG?
