Description:

Scott Nimrod is an experienced Software Consultant based out of Miami who specializes in Test Automation, WPF, Functional Programming, and a variety of other technologies.

He was an early subscriber to my channel and has given me a lot of great advice and support since I started out on YouTube in 2017!

In this interview, Scott and I discuss some serious topics related to software craftsmanship and consulting.

Specifically the dynamics between consultants and managers, working with difficult people, career growth, testing – and the direction of the software industry.

Scott also runs a YouTube channel with great interviews and live coding exercises: https://www.youtube.com/user/Bizmonger
