What this event is

Its Career Village offers resume reviews, mock interviews, professional headshots and an employer job board, alongside sponsor booths. Tickets are sold through bsorl.org.
Roles you will actually see
Who should go
Security-minded developers, DevSecOps and cloud engineers in Central Florida, from students to mid-career.
Security conferences in Orlando lean heavily toward defense and simulation employers, and a lot of those roles need clearance or citizenship. Software engineers who care about security still get real value: the mock interviews are run by practitioners and the sponsors are hiring. Go through the job board before the talks start and pick two sponsors to actually talk to. Ask about clearance requirements before you pitch.

- 3Read the sponsor list and prepare one question each
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.
See roles the minute they go live, tailor one resume per employer, and reach the hiring manager directly. Walk into the event as a follow-up, not a stranger.
