What Hiring Managers Don’t Tell You (But Should)

Hiring advice is everywhere. Honest hiring insight? Rare.
Join GDG Burnaby for a session that goes beyond résumés, algorithms, and interview prep to reveal what actually happens in a hiring manager's mind.
🚀 What Hiring Managers Don’t Tell You (But Should)
📅 Date: February 27, 2026
🕕 Time: 6:00 PM PST
🎟️ Cost: Free!
We aren't talking about "gaming the system." We’re talking about market readiness.
Please join our featured speaker, Dr. Sneha Jain, a Transformation & Innovation Leader who has led teams of 170+ and managed $125M portfolios at institutions like Mayo Clinic and Stanford Health Care. She knows exactly what differentiates a "good candidate" from a "must-hire."
What’s on the agenda?
✅ How decisions are really made behind closed doors.
✅ The "hidden" mistakes that never make it into your feedback email.
✅ Why communication and presence often outweigh technical skills.
✅ Navigating the "manager's world" of inbox overload and risk aversion.
Whether you're a student, a career switcher, or a pro looking for an edge, this is your chance to replace guesswork with transparency.
