It’s been about a month now… I am working in a company, Subex Azure. Things are going great so far. Had a one and half month training on SQL (Oracle), Unix (Linux actually), C, C++, Java and XML. Now I am undergoing what is called Process Training. It is actually to teach Extreme Programming (the kind of software engineering method used in this company).
As part of extreme programming, we have to follow what is called pair programming. In this technique, there are two people sitting at one terminal. One person acts as the driver, working at the keyboard and mouse, the other being the navigator, sitting nearby watching and continually reviewing the driver’s work. I’ve heard that it can be frustrating some times. But there are several good sides to it. You start coding on day 1. No comments, no documentation, all communications are done directly, person to person.
Can’t tell what it will be like till I actually get into it. I’m waiting…
