This list should be a good place to find out what companies are around,
which are hiring etc…  Watch out for emails tagged [JOBS] in particular.

http://brightonruby.com/ - Friday 8th July and about an hour away from
London by train down on the seaside.

http://railsgirls.london/ - last event was May 2015, but this tweet
https://twitter.com/railsgirls_ldn/status/718124193217441792 suggests
there’ll be one in July this year.

https://codebar.io/ - runs 3 evening tutorial sessions every week in London
(and more elsewhere).  It’s not just ruby that they run courses for, but
they are always looking for new coaches.

Lanyrd is a useful site for finding tech events and meetups - albeit not as
useful as it used to be :(.  For example here’s the page for ruby events in
London http://lanyrd.com/topics/ruby/in/london/ - but you could browse
around for other topics or places.

You could also try our hosts Skills Matter who run lots of free tech
meetups and commercial courses, conferences, etc...
https://skillsmatter.com/

I’m sure other folk will chip in with useful stuff too.

Cheers,

Murray
