One of the biggest obstacles to business growth is the lack of suitable IT professionals. Specific courses that are tailored to the needs of companies do not only make the recruitment process more efficient but also reduce learning time significantly while also boosting employee motivation. The chief executive officer of Green Fox Academy, Kristóf Bárdos shares his experiences on the practical benefits of the courses.
Digital transformation gained huge momentum last year. The pandemic required rapid decision-making and reaction from market players. One of the main requirements for companies is flexibility, and it has the utmost importance when it comes to temporary projects and the need to fill temporary staff shortages quickly.
In such cases, it is common for companies to recruit for specific hard skills, or even a whole team. The transfer of knowledge about the stack, framework, tools and platforms used by companies basically requires them to maintain an internal academy. This knowledge, however, can be perfectly integrated into external courses providing company-specific knowledge for junior professionals.
“A special and highly effective type of IT courses is when we organize a course with a company on a specific platform. In this case, the most significant advantage is that we aim at career-starters who want to work in that environment, with that specific platform. Before the courses, we work jointly with our development and HR colleagues to tailor the curriculum to the needs, whether it's a technology change, a new programming language or reskilling” explained Kristóf.
The methodology focuses on practice, and team members coming out of the course can immediately start working on a project. This makes the on-boarding of junior colleagues plannable and predictable.
“When a junior employee joins an organisation, they go through an on-boarding period of about 1–3 months, which is mainly about getting to know the systems. We can completely integrate this knowledge into our courses – both on technology and on a specific platform –, replacing thereby the internal on-boarding process”
continues Kristóf.
At the same time, it can be a competitive advantage for the company if, in addition to colleagues working in the development area, employees responsible for other areas, such as sales or marketing, also understand the process of digital product development. If possessing the right skills, they can even automate the no-code, low-code processes they know best. As a result, they can become one of the drivers of the company's digitalisation. The current level of the employees' knowledge and the relevant skills may vary even within a company and therefore require specific solutions.

A fejlesztési igények és a technológiák gyors változása, a minőségi munkaerő hiánya, illetve az értékes szakmai tudással rendelkező kollégák megtartásának nehézsége világszerte komoly kihívások elé állítja a vállalatokat. Hogyan adható egyedi válasz egy globális problémára? Kinek a feladata kezelni ezt, és hogyan érdemes hozzáfogni? Ezeket a kérdéseket jártuk körül Fachs Anitával, a Green Fox vállalati szolgáltatásokért felelős cégvezetőjével.
Vállalati partnerünkkel, a Morgan Stanley budapesti központjával együttműködésben kivételes lehetőséget kínáló ösztöndíjprogramot indítunk 2022 áprilisától. A Java Academy corporate bootcamp keretében 15 tehetséges, a Java nyelv és a szerveroldali programozás iránt érdeklődő hallgató térítésmentesen indíthatja újra karrierjét Back-end fejlesztőként.
A cégek fejlődésének egyik legnagyobb akadálya a megfelelő IT szakemberek hiánya. Speciális, vállalatra szabott képzésekkel nem csupán a felvételi folyamat válhat hatékonyabbá, de a betanulási idő is jelentősen lecsökken, miközben erősíthető a munkavállalói motiváció. A képzések gyakorlati előnyeiről Bárdos Kristóf, a Green Fox Academy ügyvezetője osztja meg tapasztalatait.
It is now widely known that empathy and communication are essential as a programmer. More and more employers are favouring candidates who still need to improve their technical knowledge but are strong in soft skills. But what soft skills should a programmer have and how much can these skills be developed? To what extent can the rise of ChatGPT and similar systems transform these expectations? We asked Annabella Ádám, psychologist at Green Fox Academy.
The demand for tailor-made software has perhaps never been higher. There is now an app for almost everything, for any aspect of our personal or professional life. Yet, companies and users are always looking for more and more, and new ideas are being created and implemented.
The popularity of low-code platforms is increasing in the whole world, and the demand for experts in this field is growing rapidly. Nikolett Tarjáni-Dobos left her dietician career to become a software developer and has been working as a low-code programmer in Germany for almost 2 years. She first heard about this field when she was looking for a job. Yet, she now feels lucky that this became her new career. But what does a low-code developer do and how does a working day go? We asked Niki about these topics as well as about the misconceptions around low-coding.

How is it possible to give more impetus to IT development and HR processes at the same time, even though this field is understaffed? How can you fill the gap when you need specialists of a company-specific technology who are ready to join a project as quickly as possible? The corporate bootcamp, which provides specific skills in close cooperation with a company, responds to these challenges.
