人才缺口帶火硅谷工程師速成班

????當然,有許多公司仍然會質疑僅僅接受過三個月培訓的學生能否滿足他們的需求。某些情況下,在麻省理工學院(MIT)等頂尖計算機科學學院傳統的四年制教育可能更占優勢。羅伊?巴哈特認為:“新技術突破越深入——比如,移動數據量更大,移動速度超過以往任何時候——傳統學院教育便越重要。要成為一名藝術家并不需要有材料學的博士學位,但如果你擁有這樣一個博士學位,我敢肯定你一定能創造出更酷的作品。”巴哈特是價值7,500萬美元的風險投資科技基金Bloomberg Beta的負責人。 ????Facebook多元化項目經理麗莎?李承認, 接受過四年以上計算機科學基礎教育的學生與僅僅接受過10周左右速成培訓的學生確實存在差異。但她也指出,高強度的速成班培養出了優秀的候選人,Facebook可以繼續從中篩選出技術和分析人才。事實上,這家公司已經從Hackbright Academy招聘一名畢業生從事工程職位,負責國際化。麗莎?李說:“擁有扎實的基硅谷礎知識當然很有必要,但這些東西也可以在實際生活和工作經驗中獲取。”(財富中文網) ????譯者:劉進龍/汪皓? |
????Still, many companies remain skeptical that students educated in three months or less will meet their demands. And there may also be some engineering situations where the traditional four-year training from a top computer science school like MIT remains superior. "The more you get into breaking new technical ground -- moving more data than has ever been moved, faster than it's ever been moved, for example -- the more relevant I believe a classical academic training may be," says Roy Bahat, head of the $75 million venture capital tech fund Bloomberg Beta. "You don't need a Ph.D. in materials science to be an artist, but if you have one, I bet you can do some cool stuff." ????Lisa Lee, Facebook's Diversity Program Manager, concedes students with four-plus years of computer science fundamentals may fare differently from those exposed to them for just 10 weeks or so. But she also points out that intensive bootcamps have produced excellent candidates and that Facebook continues to screen them for technical and analytical roles. To wit, the company hired one Hackbright Academy alum for an engineering role working on internationalization. Says Lee: "Having a solid foundation is important, but it is also something that can be built on the job in real-life situations and work experiences."?? |
