Welcome back to JC-JUG! Usually we have one meetup per month. For this special extra bonus June meetup, our presenter will be Helen Scott.

>>> About the speaker

Helen is a Java Developer Advocate at JetBrains. She has over 20 years of experience in the software industry which has been gained in a variety of roles including developer, technical writer, product owner, and advocacy.

Helen is passionate about the journey of learning and discovery. She enjoys challenging herself to learn new tools and technologies and sharing the highs and inevitable lows of that journey through the content that she creates.

Helen wants to encourage everyone to create content and to participate in the communities around us. Helen strives to share and communicate her journey and knowledge and loves working with like-minded people.

>>> About the presentation

We learn to write code at university, bootcamp, or we teach ourselves. Then, after months/years, we launch ourselves at our development careers and also, inadvertently launch ourselves at a whole bunch of other skills, that we might not have even realised we needed. These skills are rarely taught on traditional routes, but it's these skills, when combined with writing code, that make you a great developer.

tldr; Everything I wish I'd learned about being a developer at University
