My Job Went To India (Book review)
Chad Fowler is one of the driving forces in the Rails (and the renewed Ruby’s) community. If you need him to train your team, to consult or speak at your conference he is the man. He’s passionate and smart and that seems a really good combination to me.
His writing abilities gave birth to one of the coolest non-programming-but-for-developers books I’ve read so far.
My Job Went To India is like a journey through the renaissance of your professional career. Chad Fowler based it upon his experience as the leader of an offshore (in Bangalore) team of an IT big company.
The book is divided in six parts: Choosing your market, Investing in your product, Executing, Marketing…not just for suits, Maintaining your edge, If you can’t beat ‘em. All together will give you a lot of useful hints to move on.
I really enjoyed the comparisons throughout the book between Indian way and ours. Some useful insights (and tips) spring from this book.
If you are serious (like I am) about moving on or taking your career to the next step or simply avoid losing your job this is definitely the book for you.
Go get it!
