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.
