4:00 PM - 4:20 PM | Insider Tips from a Tech Hiring Team with Gina Rappaport, Recruiting Manager and Sujan Kapadia, Director of Consulting from Chariot Solutions: Gina and Sujan will provide tips, do's and don'ts about your resume, the interview process and what it takes to land a job.

5:00 PM - 5:20 PM | A Mentoring Cookbook: Practical Advice for Mentors and Mentees with Cassi King and Shawn Doyle, Software Engineers at STRATIS IoT: Mentorships are like a delicious meal: delightful when done well, but far too easy to screw up. In this workshop, we look at the ingredients and recipes that go into a strong mentoring relationship and offer practical advice on how to find a mentor or be a better mentor for others.
5:30 PM - 5:50 PM | Blockchain: The New Trust Framework with Mike McCoy, Blockchain Implementation Manager at Accenture: In today’s digital world with an abundance of access from city to city, country to country, there is an ever-growing problem of who and what to trust when it comes to the world wide web. From content creation, news, where our food comes from to even personal data of the people in our ecosystem, there is a lack of trust. In comes blockchain technology, which has the power to create a single source of truth in the digital world that can help bring people and organizations together. Mike McCoy will discuss the origins of trust and how we are using distributed ledgers to create better transparency in our interactions today.
6:00 PM - 6:20 PM | "Can this thing work? Agile Risk Management" with Art Carey, Software Development Manager at Linode: Starting a personal project? Working freelance? First employee at a startup? How can you be sure that you have a reasonable chance of success? One answer is to inventory your risks before committing your resources. This talk will explore how you can quickly evaluate and mitigate project risks without shaving the dreaded yak.
