Purpose

You will be a contributor in several paired/group project throughout your Turing career working on complex technical challenges. You may be surprised to find out that < 1% of failing projects at Turing are due solely to technical definicines - in fact, the majority of failing projects are due to intrapersonal/team issues. In order to set yourself (and your teammates) up for success, it is critical to clearly communicate and set expectations with your teammates.

Please use the following gist to capture your thoughts, goals, priorities, etc. as outlined by each question. You will be using these questions to help give your mentor a better idea of who you are and want to become as a developer! Please note, this is meant to be a starting point for building your norms with your mentor - you may need to adjust scheduling expecations, communication expectations, etc. when you start working with your mentor!

  • What were your reflections from the video?

I never realized how much of an impact unconscious bias has had on my decision making. I think understanding and acknowledging it is a thought process I need to integrate into everyday decisions and life in general. I also think this will be a very important trait or habit to have in professional development and working with other people, especially with software development.

  • In what ways have you examined your implicit biases before coming to Turing?

I honestly have never taken anything similar to this into consideration.

  • What kind of software do you imagine building in the future? How will understanding biases (or avoiding understanding biases) impact your products?
