This week, our group continued working on the current iteration of our capstone project. Sebastian has done a fantastic job so far setting up the baseline code/master branches for both the client and server, and we have a good starting point to expand on. Progress is going well and development continues.
For our group meeting this week, there were several items/tips/good practices from the "Effective Meetings" week that we followed:
1. The purpose of the meeting was clear: similar to a Scrum meeting, we discussed current work in progress and what was finished last week, along with any technical issues in development.
2. Agenda was clear and on topic.
3. Action items were discussed and assigned.
Since I've been back to work in the office and lab and attending daily scrum meetings for software test over the phone, I've been making note of what I think is effective regarding teleconferences and trying to implement them into our own group meetings.
Resume Reviews
I reviewed several peer resumes and LinkedIn profiles this week, and I saw a couple of great resumes with interesting, yet professional design language that I admired. If I ever decide to reformat my own resume in the future, I've got some good inspiration now. Also, I noticed the resumes that I did review followed most good resume practices, although I always find it to label a resume "good" or "bad" because it's so specific to the position you're applying for. I'll have to get some more insight on what a "good" resume has from my manager once I get the chance.
