The Career Labs Job Search Networking Edition 1

The Career Labs Job Search Networking Edition 1

Mon, Nov 9, 5:00 PM
From The Career Labs - Job Search Networking in Paris

Find your people before you find your job. Looking for a job in Paris as an international can feel lonely: endless applications, silent inboxes, and nobody to ask what actually works. The Career Labs is a small, honest evening to change that. Real conversations with people who've been where you are, and with people already working in the industries you're aiming for. This is our very first edition. It's free, and spots are limited to 15 people, so the conversations stay real. 🎤 Guest speaker: Ayushman Dash Ayushman is Head of Data & AI at Jus Mundi, the Paris legal-tech company behind the AI assistant Jus AI. He has about 12 years of experience in artificial intelligence, especially natural language processing. Before that, he was an Applied Research Scientist at Element AI, and in 2020 he founded his own startup, Neura, in India. He's built a career across research, startups and industry, in India and in France, and he'll share what he's learned about AI, careers and making it work abroad. Bring your questions. What we'll do * 7:00pm: Welcome and quick intros. Grab a drink and meet the group. * 7:15pm: Rapid-fire networking rounds. Short one-to-one conversations, then switch. You'll meet everyone in the room. * 7:45pm: Fireside chat with Ayushman, followed by open Q&A. * 8:20pm: Live industry insights. Attendees already working in different industries share how hiring really works in their field, what they look for, and what they wish they'd known. * 8:45pm: Open networking. Swap contacts and follow up. * 9:00pm: Wrap-up. Who it's for * International students and recent graduates looking for internships or jobs in Paris. * Internationals changing careers, or new to the French job market. * Professionals happy to share their experience with people starting out. Bring * Your LinkedIn on your phone, and a one-line answer to "what are you looking for?" * Curiosity. No CVs, no pitches needed. Good to know 📍 Restaurant Shera, Paris 🕖 Tuesday 10 November, 7–9pm 🎟️ RSVP, max 15 people. Please only RSVP if you can come, and free up your spot if your plans change. Organised by The Toddy Lab.

Design & Leadership : Trouver sa posture de leader

Design & Leadership : Trouver sa posture de leader

Mon, Nov 9, 6:30 PM
From Le Meetup du Laptop - UX & Création
4.5

Le Design Impro Crew revient au Laptop ! Être Head of Design ou Lead Product Designer, c'est souvent jongler entre mille casquettes : donner une vision claire, embarquer son équipe, gérer les tensions, répondre aux attentes des stakeholders… tout en restant inspirant·e, disponible et aligné·e. Pas toujours simple ! Et pourtant, c'est précisément dans ces moments de flou et de pression que le leadership se révèle. Dans cet atelier, on aborde ces défis de front, avec une arme secrète : le théâtre d'improvisation. Pas besoin d'être comédien·ne, juste avoir l'envie d'expérimenter, de se tromper et d'apprendre dans un espace bienveillant et sans jugement. Au programme : des mises en situation concrètes pour s'entraîner à donner du sens, créer l'adhésion et trouver la bonne posture même quand tout s'emballe. Parce que mobiliser, fédérer et incarner son leadership, ça s'apprend. Pour les Head of Design et Lead Product Designers prêt·e·s à passer à la vitesse supérieure. Fous rires garantis !

Thu, Nov 5, 3:00 PM
From Paris Portraits Iconiques

🇫🇷 **Français ↓ \| 🇬🇧 English below ↓** Je recherche de nouvelles personnes pour participer à une **mini-session portrait gratuite dans les rues du Marais**. L'idée de cette session : créer des portraits naturels dans une ambiance **street & lifestyle parisienne**, entre petites rues, façades, portes, cafés et scènes de vie du quartier. Plutôt qu'une succession de poses figées, nous chercherons des images spontanées : marcher, regarder autour de soi, s'appuyer contre une façade ou simplement profiter du décor. 📷 **LE PRINCIPE** La séance est **gratuite** dans le cadre du développement de mon portfolio photographique. En participant, vous acceptez qu'une sélection des photos puisse être publiée sur mon **portfolio et mes réseaux sociaux, notamment Instagram**. Vous recevrez gratuitement **3 photos sélectionnées et retouchées en haute définition**. ✨ **LA SESSION** • **15 à 20 minutes** de shooting • **3 photos retouchées** offertes • Style street / lifestyle parisien • Plusieurs petits décors à proximité • Accompagnement pour obtenir des poses et attitudes naturelles • Livraison numérique Aucune expérience devant l'objectif n'est nécessaire. 📍 **LIEU** **Le Marais – Paris** Le point de rendez-vous et le petit parcours sont précisés pour chaque session. 👕 **TENUE CONSEILLÉE** Privilégiez une tenue dans laquelle vous vous sentez à l'aise et qui correspond à votre style. Casual chic, veste, manteau, denim, tenue urbaine ou look plus travaillé : l'objectif est avant tout d'obtenir un résultat **naturel et parisien**. 🕑 **HORAIRE** La session est réalisée **en journée, en dehors de la Golden Hour**. ⚠️ **IMPORTANT** Il s'agit d'un **Model Call** destiné à développer mon portfolio et à expérimenter différents styles de portrait. Le concept est défini à l'avance et la participation implique d'accepter l'utilisation d'une sélection des images pour mon portfolio et mes réseaux sociaux. 📩 **Places limitées – inscription via Meetup.** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 🇬🇧 **ENGLISH VERSION** I'm looking for new people to join a **free mini portrait session in the streets of Le Marais**. The idea behind this session is to create natural portraits with a **Parisian street & lifestyle feel**, using the neighbourhood's small streets, façades, cafés, doorways and everyday Parisian atmosphere. Rather than a series of static poses, we'll aim for spontaneous images: walking through the streets, interacting with the surroundings and creating natural-looking portraits. 📷 **HOW IT WORKS** The session is **free** as part of the development of my photography portfolio. By participating, you agree that a selection of the photographs may be published on my **portfolio and social media, including Instagram**. You will receive **3 carefully selected and edited high-resolution photos for free**. ✨ **THE SESSION** • **15–20 minute** photo session • **3 edited photos** included • Parisian street / lifestyle style • Several nearby backgrounds • Guidance to help you look natural in front of the camera • Digital delivery No modelling or photoshoot experience is required. 📍 **LOCATION** **Le Marais – Paris** The exact meeting point and short walking route will be provided for each session. 👕 **WHAT TO WEAR** Choose an outfit that feels like you and that you feel comfortable wearing. Casual chic, denim, a jacket or coat, an urban outfit or something slightly more dressed up can all work well. The goal is to create a **natural Parisian lifestyle look**. 🕑 **TIME** This session takes place **during the daytime, outside Golden Hour**. ⚠️ **IMPORTANT** This is a **Model Call designed to develop my portfolio and explore different styles of portrait photography**. The concept is defined in advance, and participation requires permission for a selection of the images to be used on my portfolio and social media. 📩 **Limited spots – registration via Meetup.**
