The Bay Area Community College Consortium (BACCC) – which includes the Peralta Colleges – produces Tech Talks, a regular series of monthly webinars for students, and interested faculty. The topic for the first one this year is "How to Set Yourself Apart as a Great Entry Level Tech Hire". This interactive discussion panel on Thursday 9/22 at 6:00 PM features software development executive Bob Vallone, and Anders Poirel from Joby Aviation.
Topics include:
- The importance of participating in independent projects (group and individual)
- Participation in hackathons and competitions
- Using LinkedIn and Slack to network and find jobs, and perhaps a mentor
- How to plan a marketing campaign to find a first job or internship
