Building Up with Open Source

Want an internship but you have no experience? Want to learn how to get noticed by recruiters? Want to work with other passionate developers? Join this session as it provides a comprehensive roadmap for contributing to open-source projects so that you can make your resume stand out. It begins with guidance on project discovery and selection, highlighting avenues to find suitable initiatives. Participants will learn how to make contributions through Git, emphasizing the ideal workflow of forking repositories and then creating pull requests. The session delves into the intricacies of code review, shedding light on what reviewers look for and how to navigate their feedback. Finally, we will take about how to highlight all of this on your resume!

Help! How do I know what kind of developer I want to be?

Front end developer? backend developer? data engineer? security? DevOps? Full stack? We will take 10 minutes for each sub section of developing and work through a real life bug and fix it. After attending this session you will leave with a better idea of what kind of developing you are interested in!

Writing a technical resume

What do you add on your resume? Does it have to be one page? Do you need side projects? Do you include a photo? Does linkedIn matter? How do I write good bullet points? What template should I use? PDF vs Word? What is ATS? All of these questions and more will be answered in this presentation! You will leave knowing how to make an impressive technical resume that recruiters will notice. Half of the session will be devoted to industry professionals reviewing your resume, so make sure to bring a recent resume!

Why do computer scientists name things so interestingly?

The hardest part of computer science and programming is naming variables. I will go into all the fun naming conventions, where they came from and fun examples of weird naming.
