DESCRIPTION: Aaron and Brian continue the "Four for Four Hundred" shows, with a focus on community engagement.

SHOW SPONSOR LINKS: SHOW INTERVIEW LINKS: SHOW NOTES: Topic 1 - Welcome back to the show. What types of things are you working on these days, especially in the context of people getting support from communities? Topic 2 - Tell us about the feedback you’re getting from community members about the importance of technical skills vs. industry-specific knowledge or skills. Topic 3 - You often recommend “doing an interview” to gauge how well prepared someone is to find a new job, or understand new jobs. Can you elaborate on some examples of how to do this - the “frienderview”. Topic 4 - Is it ever a good time to align your resume to the current buzzwords of the industry? How far away are your current skills from where you want to be? Topic 5 - What are some tips for learning the domain-specific terminology as people move into new industries?
