I would be seriously psyched to pair with a motivated total "noob" because I remember how exhilarating the first few years are, and how great it is to have your mind blown weekly or monthly by some subtle concept.
Point is, it would be cool to have more chances. Even unpaid gigs or below decency pay could help. But nothing of this around. Especially because it should be remote. Hope somebody fixes this, if there is really a shortage of programmers I mean.
It has to be remote as I live in a small city in Germany. I can't move out as I need my job. I don't live my job as I have no idea if start ups would be for me (that's why a remote work would be nice too, to get to know what the job is...). But I noticed I get programming fast, so that's why I always look for a chance to prove myself in there, maybe finance is not for me after all, who knows.
My assumption, based on nothing, has been that a person in my shoes would be more likely to interfere than anything else.
I am curious to hear if those with experience feel differently. Beyond wanting to help someone out, etc. are there other motivations for someone with experience to want to do this?
I'm in LA but would love to hear how you would approach pairing up to work with a 'noob' like me. I'm bobby.matson [a] gmail
is it confusing to anyone else which of those are public when looking at the edit form?
