This is not some boring old resume exchange.
On Feb. 23, Technical.ly Philly will host its third NET/WORK, a technology jobs fair where organizations can show off their company culture and attendees can show off their personality.
More than 500 attendees and 50 companies attended our second annual NET/WORK event in February 2015.
The 2016 edition of NET/WORK will be held at Fishtown’s new music venue, The Fillmore Philly, and will feature over 60 local tech organizations ready to hire.
We know that great technologists have options when it comes to finding a job, so we’re building an environment where employers and attendees can test the “fit.” Suits and ties are optional and conversations that dig deep are encouraged.
The event will feature a “coffeeshop” area for networking and coworking, dev-focused workshops, resume reviews, LinkedIn-appropriate head shots and more. Yes, there is also a happy hour for even more casual networking and for those more passive job seekers.
