Interviewing for a new job can be a stressful proposition. A group of volunteers from Amazon Web Services (AWS, aws.amazon.com) created this training to demystify the interview process. This is tailored to job seekers seeking employment in tech. In this virtual seminar, we will cover good and bad interviewing practices we’ve witnessed through our careers and present helpful tips to prepare for technical interviews. We will also provide resources to practice for your next interview.

During this session, we will: - Prepare you for the interview - Set expectations for the day of the interview - Role-play a mock interview - Provide approaches to navigating the coding test - Share information and resources.

Due to the level of interaction required, attendance will be capped at 50.

Agenda: 12:00 p.m. - Event begins 12:03 p.m. - Intros and announcements 12:10 p.m. - Session begins 1:15 p.m. - Event ends

Two Portland powerhouses are joining forces to humanize tech, create access and connect awesome people! PDXWIT + Cinder presents a panel discussion, moderated by Katy Byrtus, focused on tech leaders who come from backgrounds that have been systematically excluded from positions of power.

We believe anyone who identifies as a leader is a leader. Your title doesn't define you and we will unpack some of these beliefs while discussing how community and mentorship (or lack thereof) have shaped career pathways for leaders.

Our panel will feature professionals with intersecting identities who are changing the industry. We will get real, get vulnerable, and share authentically as we reflect on some difficult questions.

There will be ASL interpretation and closed captioning throughout.

Panelists include:

Cinthia Manuel (she/her), CEO + Founder, Autentica Consulting Himalaya Rao (she/her), GP + Managing Director @ Black Founders Matter Trip Longworth (they/he), Developer Relations @ Garden Hope to see you there and please help us spread the word!
