About this Session

Sometimes, a strategy is needed to accomplish a future career change, or simply to get further in your current position. Should you go back to school? Look for a new job? Learn a new set of skills by yourself? Become a freelancer?

One of our mentors could be the outside view you need. They understand the challenges that come with a career change, and are happy to help you come up with a solid strategy on how to reach your goals.

Designed for students and recent graduates, particularly from non-tier 1 institutions, this mentoring session provides comprehensive guidance on entering the tech industry with a focus on securing remote positions. We begin by discussing how to create an impactful portfolio that highlights your skills and projects, emphasizing elements that are attractive to global employers. We'll also delve into effective strategies for technical interviews, including common questions, problem-solving techniques, and presentation skills.

Networking tactics will be a key part of our discussion, teaching you how to leverage professional platforms like LinkedIn and GitHub to connect with industry leaders and potential mentors. Furthermore, you'll learn how to utilize open source contributions as a strategic tool to gain real-world experience, improve your coding skills, and build a network in the software development community.

The session also covers how to identify and apply for remote job opportunities, understanding the nuances of remote work culture, and the tools that facilitate effective online collaboration. We'll explore how to present yourself as a strong candidate for remote roles, considering what tech companies look for in prospective employees from diverse backgrounds.

By the end of our time together, you'll have a clear roadmap for navigating the complexities of starting a tech career, with tailored advice on making the transition from academia to a fulfilling remote job in the tech industry.

Also, to know you well, i would love to get answers on the following questions:

* What is your current educational background & College?
* What challenges or obstacles do you feel are blocking your entry into the tech industry?
* Do you need guidance on technical skills, resume building, interviewing, networking, or all?
* Share your LinkedIn and GitHub/GitLab profile

Contributing to open source initially felt overwhelming, as I wasn’t sure how to approach it. I reached out to Siddhant, who has extensive experience with open source contributions, for guidance. He recommended specific types of repositories to explore and provided concrete steps to get started. Beyond that, he also shared valuable advice on navigating today’s challenging job market, which has been incredibly helpful. With his guidance, I feel confident that I’ll be able to make meaningful contributions to open source projects.
