This Week in Jobs, PTW20 Reboot Edition: Get Introduced to your new career

Editor’s note: Every week we ship an email newsletter featuring the region’s most exciting career opportunities. We’ve lovingly called it This Week in Jobs (aka TWIJ — “twidge”). Below is this week’s edition. Here’s the last one we published; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.

Got plans tomorrow?

“Wait a minute,” I know you’re saying to yourself right now. “I already read TWIJ this week! Another one?!”

Well, this week is special, and this literally couldn’t wait.

It’s almost the end of Philly Tech Week 2020 presented by Comcast, and we hope you’ve had a chance to check out some of the fun and interesting virtual events so far, like yesterday’s Developers Conference. There’s still one more opportunity to interact with top technologists and hiring companies — and it’s a big one.

Tomorrow, Sept. 25, Technical.ly is hosting Introduced, a full-day conference on building better workplaces. There will be presentations, conversations and curated meetings with industry leaders and rising startups, as well as a virtual “exhibitor booth” area where you can learn more about companies and chat with real live hiring managers — all from the comfort of your living room.

Register here and check out the info below to make sure you’re prepared to be Introduced to your next job!
