With the increase of code academies training new engineers there is an increase in junior engineers on the market. A lot of companies are hesitant to hire too many young engineers because they lack sufficient resources to train them. This is a talk about how to make junior engineers into independent and productive members of your engineering team faster and cheaper by outlining a plan for how to onboard engineers effectively based on data and anecdotes gathered from companies in San Francisco.

I am a web applications developer from the bay area who builds full-stack web applications. I got my MSCS at Stanford but did my undergrad degree in Communication. I am active in the community with organizations like Hackbright Academy, PyLadies, and Girl Geek Dinners.
