Re: Senior Programmer: advice on training new recruits
As Ryan said, do they know C? If they do, give them a little test to see if they're good at it, teach them more if needed on a Windows/Linux environment. Then introduce them to programming micro controllers, its a whole new programming environment for them. Give them documents from IFI and Microchip if you can, or at least links to them. Microchips documents are a bit advanced so they're better off with IFIs. And then its Teach, practice, teach, practice, teach, practice, teach, real run.
