🗣Talk one: From Junior to Senior

How to progress with confidence in your career? What are the qualities that the companies are seeking in a senior? How to progress in our career growth? These are all questions that all of us struggle at some point. Some paths make us grow in a solid way, other ways turn out to be not so beneficial in the long run. In this talk we'll discuss the qualities that make us be recognized as seniors in our profession.

Speaker: Marin Metohu
