Presented in partnership with ChickTech. Let's talk recruitment, cultural fit, compensation, and career development for female engineers and developers.
There's a shortage of women in tech. Yes, we got it.
Companies need to be more diverse and inclusive. Yes, heard that before.
There's too many engineering jobs and not enough qualified applicants. Yeah, you don't say.
SO WHAT CAN WE AS WOMEN DO ABOUT IT?
The answer is to educate ourselves and use that knowledge to bring about smart opportunities that will not only improve our own livelihood, but the broader tech community in NYC. Join the New York Technology Council and ChickTech for a fun, candid discussion about talent recruitment and career development for female engineers and developers. Our panel of speakers will answer the following questions:
Recruiting & interviewing
What do companies really look for when hiring engineers?
How should you read job descriptions to determine if the role is right for you?
What can you expect in a technical interview?
WHO SHOULD ATTEND? This session is for technicalwomen who work in tech and/or startups, but everyone is welcome including men. You'll gain valuable insights into the recruiting process at four major technology companies and meet others who share your passion for career development and technology.
