List of Coffee Table Groups

Active Groups​

Please check our online events page as well as the #announcements and #vc-events channels on Virtual Coffee's Slack for the latest updates and links to event rooms.

Accountabilibuddies​

You want to learn that new tool, finish up that blog post, or send that job application, but you’re so busy that the day is over before you know it. Join us and add some fun and friendly accountability to your schedule!

Drop into our sessions whenever and for however long your schedule allows. No matter the goal, you’ll find encouragement and support alongside your Accountabilibuddies!

The Pack Hunt​

Job hunting as a collective: An accountability session exclusively for job hunting. Support each other by being present and sharing your goals, target roles, and resources. Let's collaborate as we apply for jobs, reach out to recruiters, and scroll LinkedIn for leads. "Hunt with the pack! Arwoooo...!!!"

Frontend Friday Folks Fighting CSSBattle.dev​

On Fridays, we solve a new puzzle at CSSBattle.dev. We meet in the #co-working-room for this Coffee Table Group, and can move our meeting to a breakout room so as not to disturb any co-working VC members. Feel free to join us and learn more about CSS! If you can't make it, be sure to play along on your own and post your answers in Virtual Coffee's CSS Battles Discussion board!

Feelings Friday​

Feelings Friday was started at the Flatiron School coding bootcamp by its founders, Avi Flombaum & Adam Enbar, after they noticed burnout among their first cohorts. Join a supportive group where everyone has the opportunity to share what’s on their mind in a safe environment. It's a great way to unwind at the end of the week!

Inactive Groups​

Tech Interview Study Group​

A weekly discussion of job search and interview-related topics, including mini mock interviews, technical topic discussions, job search tips, occasional guest speakers, and more! We are always looking for ideas to help meet your needs. All stages of career and job search are welcome!

Interested? Join the #tech-interview-study-group Slack channel!

Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) Office Hours​

DSA Office Hours is an opportunity to come and ask questions about anywhere you get stuck on this week’s coding problems, or about this week’s topic. Find this week’s DSA topic and coding problems in #tech-interview-study-group. New topics and problems every week!

Virtual Coffee Book Club​

Read, study, and discuss 2-3 books each year with fellow Virtual Coffee readers. Use the questions in the Virtual Coffee Book Club on GitHub discussions to go at your own pace for any past books. Feel free to gather a group of friends and start your own read-through for a book.

Just join the #book-club Slack channel!
