What is our pre-Sprint Check-in?

At kood/Jõhvi, we always strive to make the learning experience better. This is why we’re excited to introduce a new step in our admission process – the pre-Sprint Check-in info session. This addition is designed to ensure that all sprinters are well-prepared, confident, and committed from the very start of their coding journey with us.

Why a pre-Sprint Check-in? 

Our goal is to boost sprinters’ commitment and provide a solid foundation of confidence as they take the challenging yet rewarding path of our Selection Sprint. This session will help align expectations and equip participants with the essential tools and knowledge they need to succeed.

What to Expect in the Session:

  1. We’ll kick off the session with a warm welcome and provide an overview of the sprint structure and goals, ensuring everyone knows what to expect and how to navigate the coming weeks.
  2. Our team will demonstrate setting up the environment, basic Git and shell operations, and writing a simple “Hello World” program in Java. This session is designed to familiarise you with the tools you’ll be using throughout the Sprint, ensuring you feel confident and ready to dive into coding.
  3. We’ll share valuable resources available on platforms like Notion and various reliable online sources that you can use throughout the sprint to enhance your learning and problem-solving skills.
  4. Have questions? We’ll wrap up the session with a Q&A.

Joining the info session 

The pre-Sprint check-in is mandatory for all sprinters registered for the upcoming Selection Sprint. Details regarding the date and time of the session will be communicated upon your registration (via email).

We believe this new step will significantly enrich your preparation and set the stage for a successful and fulfilling Sprint experience.

Looking forward to welcoming you to our next session and an exciting Sprint ahead!
