Session
You’ve done the work but still feel invisible. In this interactive experience, you’ll take on the role of a recruiter and help decide who gets contacted and who gets skipped. We’ll run live sourcing examples, review anonymized profiles, and break down what actually makes someone stand out. This is not a lecture. It’s a hands-on session shaped by the audience that shows how hiring really works and how to stop blending in.
