Who should go

Experienced women in tech and allies who want face time with hiring managers rather than recruiters.

Sai's take

Smaller than WomenHack but the people at the tables are often the actual hiring managers, which matters more. Come with a clear target role and ask about team openings, not company openings. Sponsorship is unknown and skews toward startups here, so confirm before investing follow-up effort. Greenpoint is a trek; leave early and stay to the end, the best conversations happen after the talks.

Show up prepared

  1. 1Grab a free candidate ticket on Eventbrite before it caps
  2. 2Research the listed speakers and their companies
  3. 3Prepare one thoughtful question about a speaker's engineering org

Sponsorship reality

Sponsorship varies by employer. No organizer publishes sponsorship. Check each employer you plan to meet against H-1B disclosure data before you go, and ask in the first two minutes so neither side wastes the conversation.

Showing up is half of it.

The other half is being first to the roles these employers post, and having something real to show when you get there.
