What an inspiring Girls' Day we had today at our Hamburg office! We welcomed a group of energetic girls, all eager to see what it's like to work in tech for a day. Together, we wrote this article about their learnings and highlights of the day:
Girls' Day at CoreMedia
Today was Girl's Day at CoreMedia. We learned more about CoreMedia by conducting interviews with Jessica, Eva, and Eric.
Then there was a talk about sprints and Scrum. We learned that a Sprint lasts 1-3 weeks. Before each spring, exact planning is done regarding what needs to be done, and at the end, there is a review of the work that has been done.
We got to know the different departments at CoreMedia and learned more about the corresponding study programs.
Then finally it was lunchtime - we were really hungry after all that information. We also got to play table tennis and football a bit. Usually, that's what the programmers do. 😊
In the afternoon, we learned to program with Calliope Boards. For example, we displayed the temperature and sent it to other boards. We programmed symbols that are displayed at startup. That was really cool!
Now we are working together to write this blog. We're trying to pack a lot of information into a few lines and then translate it into English as well, as you can read the result in this post. Thank goodness for ChatGPT these days.
The Girls Day will certainly take place again next year. It was very interesting and we hope the girls have a lot of fun next year too!
