I am personally emailing all 150+ applicants (individually) to inform you of your selection status.

Please be patient. Thank you!

Greetings from Burma!

I wanted to say your offer really caught on with everyone, and I was seriously thinking about applying until I saw the requirements asking for Python skills, which I don't have. But I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for coming up with this idea to help young people here in Myanmar. As a developer myself, I really admire your effort and dedication.

Kudos!

Thank you for your kind words. I limited to Python because the program will be primarily run with me alone at the moment. And I am not confident that I could be able to help people with other technical stacks as much as I want to. I will evaluate the first few groups of people and will take in additional stacks depending on their results.

I am still considering whether to accept individuals without a Python background. I would be able to assist Python developers more effectively.

Even if I'm studying at a university in Thailand and not knowing Python well, can I join this program?

Being able to write simple script/app/program in python would be better fit for the program since I am not technically "teaching". May be try to finish a short course on Python first?

I intended this program to become a self-sustainable community where we could bring in juniors anytime. So, there will always be a chance.

Hello Ko Swan, I sent an email on Jun 30, applying for this apprenticeship, and a message via LinkedIn as well. I hope that I was not too late to apply for it and that I could get a chance to work with you and the community.

Thank you for this incredible opportunity and I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for your interest in applying. Due to unexpectedly high volume of applicants, it might take a bit of time for me to reply. Stay tuned.
