Remote work is here to stay: after being forced to work from home in 2020, it seems we’ve sort of realized it’s actually fine to skip the commute and join the company meeting from the comfort of your sofa. Or is it? While remote work certainly sounds easy and laid-back, it’s not just about remembering to unmute yourself on the Zoom call: remote brings its own challenges, and if you’re aiming to get hired for a remote or hybrid role, you have to get comfortable with it, and show you’re capable of giving your best in an online environment and aligning with the company and with your coworkers.

Have you been thinking about switching careers? You wouldn’t be the first: about half of the workforce is considering a job change, and 20% have already taken the leap in 2022, joining professional fields with growing demand, such as Tech. They call it the Great Reshuffle for a reason: even in the most unpredictable of times, workers have raised their standards and aren’t afraid to go for it, because pivoting careers might not be as difficult as you think.

Getting out of your comfort zone is no easy thing. It is only after a lot of hesitation and around 50 pros & cons lists that I decided it was time for a career change.

That’s why we chose to make a comparison between JavaScript and Ruby, which are both good languages to start learning how to code. Both have advantages and disadvantages, and it often depends on what your goals are.

Wi-Fi and a Computer, that’s all a Digital Nomad needs to work from the most beautiful Indonesian beaches or the most hyped cafés in Manhattan. Many of Ironhack alumni, after getting trained in Web Development, UX/UI Design or Data Analytics, have adopted this way of life. We asked them what were their favorite places to work at in the entire world. Here are their 5 favorite destinations that you should consider in 2019:

Attending a coding bootcamp in another country is like signing up for a triathlon and then requesting to do it blindfolded. It’s intense, it’s exhausting, and you’re probably going to make a fool of yourself. So far, it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

This whole mess started a long time ago. I was only 12 years old and my father, a quite successful computer science engineer, was making a superhuman effort to try to answer my question: why did a single 3.5-inch floppy disk (known back then as a “micro-disk”) could hold as much information as 18 of the larger, decade older, 8-inch predecessors? (A reasonable question that every 12-year-old kid needs have answered to go on about life.) It did not make sense to me how something a quarter as small in size could be in fact be several times larger in data storage capacity.

Badi, a simple and practical app, connects tenants and their vacant rooms with people searching for just that: rooms for rent in a shared space. Available on the GooglePlay and iTunes, Badi offers an intelligent match between supply and demand in which every party wins. Badi now is on TV with a spot and the app was developed by Alberto Betalla, ex-Lead Instructor at Ironhack Barcelona, and two Ironhackers, David Santos and Oriol Bellido.
