Blacks in Tech Presents: Gather + Grow: HR and Recruiting Panel
Airbnb Portland

bit - PDX is thrilled for this next event! We've brought together a diverse panel of movers and shakers in the Portland tech community to help you grow professionally.

Jeselle Headman - EDI Success Manager - Treehouse

Lena Battan - Head of People at Cozy

Tim Butler - Recruiter at New Relic

These professionals will be on hand to help demystify some of the tech hiring needs, as well as standout qualities for POCs in tech. They will explain what recruiters and hiring managers are looking for in both technical and non-technical positions. Additionally, we'll discuss hard skills and the lesser known "soft skills" that a lot of folks in general have a hard time understanding.

Moderator, Lieghti Sharp, will be asking questions about how POCs can put their best foot forward and land that tech job. We want you to participate too! Bring question, business cards, and have your LinkedIn app ready to use. There will be networking with food and drinks after the panel discussion.
