Careers in Agile Panel Discussion

Wednesday, February 24, 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM EST.

More and more companies are moving to Agile to effectively manage changes they face internally and in the marketplace. The demand for people to work in Agile is continually increasing.

*) For those of you navigating the job market or looking to make a move:
• Perhaps you have significant Agile experience and now find yourself needing to find your next job.
• Or maybe you are looking to apply your Agile experience to a different industry.
• Or perhaps you have training and certifications but no practical Agile experience and are seeking your first job role in Agile.

With a competitive job market, what steps do you need to take to
land the role you want? How do you enhance your Agile career to
find more fulfilling work?
