About us

A english-speaking group for PHP Developers in and around Amsterdam. Our goal is to grow the local community, search for new developers and spread knowledge and resources.

Amsterdam is a very active technology center for the Netherlands, many companies and people from various countries have chosen this area to settle down and start their companies. PHP has a big role in this and for that reason we created a User Group focused on this area and in doing activities in english to acommodate all of these developers.

Come meet with us to stay up to date with the latest in PHP and its ecosystem as well as meeting new people and networking.

Landing the Role
Finding the right role is about more than just your GitHub contributions or your proficiency with Symfony and Laravel. To land a position at a company you love, you first have to navigate the gatekeepers of the hiring process.

Following up on last year’s panel discussion, this session shifts from conversation to practical advice. We’re stripping back the mystery of the recruitment process to provide a practical, informative guide on how to stand out in a competitive market.

In this session, we’ll cover:
* The Blueprint of a great CV: How to structure your experience so recruiters actually read it.
* The art of the cover letter: tell a story that resonates with hiring managers.
* The interview playbook: essential do’s and don’ts - from handling technical hurdles to asking the right questions that show you’re the right fit.
