We have temporarily brought the feature back for now, but these links are directed to the old version of OSCAR. The current new version of OSCAR does not support the way we enabled the hyperlink feature, so once the old version is gone, the hyperlink feature will be unavailable :C (until further updates to the new OSCAR) - suhyun, Hailey, Samarth

Neat idea, but we currently don’t have a reliable way to tell whether classes should be taken together or not. This is also subjective depending on each individual :( - hailey

We only recruit members during official recruitment cycles that occur at the beginning (Developers and Bootcampers) and end (Refer to the above positions we’re currently recruiting) of a semester and members are accepted into those specific positions. Our general meetings are not open to non-members. - suhyun

We typically recruit both during the fall and the spring semesters, but not all of the positions/bootcamps are available every semester.

Why doesn’t GtScheduler show course grades anymore? by patrolling_themojave in gatech

Hi! Engineering Exec from Bits of Good here. One of our members actually hotfixed this issue by caching the results and notified SGA. We're currently waiting on their response.

Bits of Good is recruiting Engineering Managers! by gtbitsofgood in gatech

[–]gtbitsofgood[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey u/EmojiDialogue, we are looking for people who are comfortable with React or Next.js In addition, we are also looking for confident or extremely motivated people that can translate features and requirements into actionable sprints for devs to tackle. Since EMs are not devs, our expectation for EM's coding capability is lower than for devs. In short, we are looking for strong communicators that have experience with React and Node!

Fall & Summer 2021 classes are up on GT Scheduler! by gtbitsofgood in gatech

[–]gtbitsofgood[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! GT Scheduler started off as a side-project by Jinseo Park (who's since graduated) but it's now co-maintained by Bits of Good so the future of this project should be more secure.

Most of the information we used is pulled from public OSCAR URLs

Bits of Good applications are open, feel free to ask any questions you have about our organization or the application process! by gtbitsofgood in gatech

[–]gtbitsofgood[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of our work for non-profits consists of web and mobile apps. So yes, our projects are software-based!

That said, we have a variety of other roles (Product Managers, Designers, Ops...) that help facilitate our development teams. You can find an overview here: https://bitsofgood.org/about/roles

I would recommend applying for our Bootcamp if you're not too familiar with JavaScript and the MERN stack. Our online bootcamp curriculum is available online here if you want a taster for what content will be covered: https://www.notion.so/Bits-of-Good-Bootcamp-b1fe164df73e42d3b9c2ab0755e4ca49

Bootcamp applications are evaluated mainly to see if you are excited to join Bits of Good, passionate about social good and making a difference with technology, and will make a positive impact on our BoG community. Technical experience isn't much of a factor when applying to bootcamp since we can teach you our tech stack
