I am 24 and finished college with a ME degree. My first job out of school was designing trash cans and I am really just not happy with my options in ME. I want to switch into tech.
What do you think is the best way to pick up programming? I did some coding in college, but I feel like I am not good enough to dive straight into a full time job. I am trying to decide between:
* Code school in my city (Atlanta) so like Iron Yard or Tech Talent South. But I have very mixed reviews.
* Code school in Silicon Valley, like Hack Reactor where I can really be in the roots of it all.
* More immersive program like Camp Code Away or Ruby on the Beach.
Thanks for your help!
So I guess what I am trying to say is that you should pick a language or technology stack and teach yourself. The resources are everywhere. Start somewhere, impress yourself with how you pick it up and then repeat the cycle by learning the next topic.
