Geographical boundaries blur and culture increasingly take center stage when it comes to technologists and tech companies looking for their perfect fit. Technical.ly’s NET/WORK 2021 proves no different.

NET/WORK 2021, to be held on Thursday, March 18, will feature location-specific job openings as well as remote work opportunities. Exhibiting companies will be sourcing for positions that take on a variety of workplace formats: in-office, remote-first and remote-friendly.

While remote is on the rise, NET/WORK remains true as a job fair rooted in building local economies through specific community connections. The day’s agenda is structured accordingly, with time periods dedicated to states and metro areas across the mid-Atlantic: Pennsylvania, Delaware and the DMV region (D.C., Maryland and Virginia).

Here’s what the day will look like:

Attendees and companies will have the opportunity to meet one another virtually and explore their interests and priorities at the event.

  • Noon to 2 p.m. — Pennsylvania and Delaware companies (especially the Philly and Pittsburgh metro areas)
  • 2 to 4 p.m. — Remote focus
  • 4 to 6 p.m. — DMV companies (D.C. metro, Baltimore and surrounding area, and Virginia)

NET/WORK 2021 is free to attend and will be held from noon to 6 p.m. ET on March 18. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Explore hiring companies by visiting their virtual booth
  • Chat live on video with hiring managers
  • Culture shoutouts, where exhibiting companies have a live conversation with our newsroom
  • Newsroom coverage, with info before and after the event for attendees and sponsors alike
