Origin Stories #21 - Kristina Fox - Staff iOS Engineer @ Intuit




iOS Dev Discussions - Sean Allen show

Summary: <p>In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Kristina Fox, Staff iOS Engineer at Intuit. I had the pleasure of meeting Kristina during all the WWDC festivities so I'm excited to have her on the show. We get to hear how she got her start as a child by editing the HTML of Neopets pages, how she chose to study computer science in college and her internship experience. Now that Kristina is the one conducting the interviews, we also get some great advice for intern and jr. iOS developer interviews.  Kristina is also an international speaker, so there's a bonus origin story on how she got started speaking. Hope you enjoy!</p> <p>Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.</p> <p>Kristina's Twitter:</p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/krstnfx">https://twitter.com/krstnfx</a></p> <p>Kristina's Blog:</p> <p><a href="https://kristina.io">https://kristina.io</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Link to my book - How I Became an iOS Developer:</p> <p><a href="https://gumroad.com/l/sean-allen-origin"><strong>https://gumroad.com/l/sean-allen-origin</strong></a></p> <p>Books, hoodies and goodies:</p> <p><a href="https://seanallen.co/store"><strong>https://seanallen.co/store</strong></a></p> <p>If you're enjoying this podcast, I have another one called Swift Over Coffee w/ Paul Hudson of Hacking with Swift:</p> <p><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/swift-over-coffee/id1435076502?mt=2"><strong>https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/swift-over-coffee/id1435076502?mt=2</strong></a></p> <p>Twitter:</p> <p><a href="https://www.twitter.com/seanallen_dev"><strong>https://www.twitter.com/seanallen_dev</strong></a></p> <p>Instagram:</p> <p>@seanallen_dev</p> <p>Patreon:</p> <p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/seanallen"><strong>https://www.patreon.com/seanallen</strong></a></p> <p>YouTube Channel:</p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/seanallen"><strong>https://www.youtube.com/seanallen</strong></a></p> <p>Portfolio:</p> <p><a href="https://seanallen.co/"><strong>https://seanallen.co</strong></a></p> <p>Are you a gamer?
