Time: 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Location: : Abbotsford, B101
The tech industry is characterized by rapid and continuous change driven by innovation, market demand, and evolving consumer preferences. Businesses across all sectors are undergoing digital transformation to remain competitive and meet customer expectations. Startups are driving innovation and disrupting traditional methods of doing business.
This has led to a growing demand for tech talent with specialized skills in AI, data science, cybersecurity, and software development as new technologies are constantly emerging. A shortage of qualified professionals has exacerbated competition for talent among businesses.
Our well-rounded panelists consist of Chief Executives, Hiring and People Managers, Local Business Owners, and Tech Experts with 70+ cumulative years of experience in the Information Technology industry. The students will be able to participate in a Q&A to ask questions about the industry, opportunities, and network with these industry experts.
This event is hosted with support from the Computing Students Association and the Center for Experiential and Career Education (CECE). Students will have opportunities to connect with other employers on-site as part of the CECE’s Career Fair 2024 program which runs from 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM on the same day.
This event will be hosted hybrid (in-person and via zoom) to guests that are registered using the Eventbrite link.
*In person attendees should note that there will not be elevator access to B101 during this event.
PS: A brief survey will be sent to participants as a follow-up to the event. Participants of the survey are automatically entered into a draw to win custom swags from the School of Computing.
