<div dir="ltr">Hi LRUG,<div><br></div><div>This is just a reminder to say that blackgirl.tech is having an Anonymous Hiring Masterclass later this month specifically for employers and recruiters, basically anyone who is in a position to hire people or offer candidates to be hired. If you actually care about diversifying your teams but are unsure how to or where to start, this is a good starting point. The masterclass will be led by Kate Glazebrook, who has a wealth of experience in the field. There are currently 5 more spaces, so grab your tickets before they go. You can find out more & get tickets here: <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/anonymous-hiring-masterclass-tickets-32285991269">https://www.eventbrite.com/e/anonymous-hiring-masterclass-tickets-32285991269</a> </div><div><br></div><div>Also, after yesterday's thread on workshops for beginners (thanks to those who contributed) I decided to start a list of ruby/rails resources that beginners may find useful. It's literally just a markdown file hosted on github with a bunch of links, but check it out & please do contribute if you think anything's missing: <a href="https://github.com/damzcodes/ruby_and_rails_resources">https://github.com/damzcodes/ruby_and_rails_resources</a></div><div><br></div><div>Finally, blackgirl.tech are looking for organisational partners. We will soon be launching a membership service and would like to offer our members discounts on cool products. If you think you have a product or service that our members may find useful, please do get in touch. We're also offering a scholarship package for organisations to send one black woman on a bootcamp course, the organisation will pay for the package which will pay for tuition costs and the organisation's name will be on the scholarship, e.g. 'The blackgirl.tech & LRUG Scholarship'. If your organisation is interested, again, do get in touch.</div><div><br></div><div>Kindly,</div><div><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Lola Odelola</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://blackgirl.tech" target="_blank">blackgirl.tech</a><span style="font-size:12.8px"> | </span><span style="font-size:12.8px"><a href="http://www.twitter.com/blackgirltech" target="_blank">@blackgirltech</a></span><br><a href="http://www.damilolaodelola.com" target="_blank">www.damilolaodelola.com</a> | <span style="font-size:12.8px"><a href="http://www.twitter.com/lolaodelola" target="_blank">@lolaodelola</a></span></div><div><br></div></div><br></div><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
