✨ **𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐲** ✨ Yesterday, I had the pleasure of attending a virtual connect event organized by WomenHack. I met incredible individuals with diverse and impressive backgrounds. This experience has given me new insights that I’d like to share with all hiring managers and job seekers. 🌍 **𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐉𝐨𝐛 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭** 🌍 The job market is incredibly saturated right now, making it difficult for many to stay afloat. It's natural to feel nervous and anxious when you've applied to 50+ jobs and received just one screening call, only to hear nothing further. 💡 **𝐀 𝐌𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐇𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐬** 💡 Please, be kind and empathetic. The applicants you’re reviewing are struggling, and many are facing significant challenges in managing daily expenses. The jobless scenarios can vary: 1. New to the country 2. Returning to work after personal time off 3. Recently laid off I have received over 100 emails like this: "𝐷𝑒𝑎𝑟 ..., 𝑇ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑘 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑜𝑓𝑡𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝐸𝑛𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑒𝑟 𝐼𝐼 𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑎𝑡 ....

These rejections don’t reflect a problem with the candidate; it’s simply a tough time, and disappointments are part of the journey. 🤝 **𝐀𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞** 🤝 I invite everyone to connect, collaborate, and build skills and portfolios together, regardless of industry or field. Let’s support each other by sharing resources, knowledge, and opportunities. This could be the first step toward something great. Together, we can navigate these challenging times and emerge stronger. Let’s build something amazing together! 💪 #JobSearch #Hiring #Collaboration #CommunitySupport #EmpathyInHiring

Last week’s WomenHack event was a blast! We had an amazing time connecting with amazing candidates and celebrating diversity in tech. Big thanks to everyone who joined us! 🫶 #WomenHack #Guadalajara #Tech #Community #Inclusion #Diversity #SoftwareDevelopers #Mexico

WomenHack is more than just an event. As a passionate advocate for inclusivity in all fields, being part of spaces where every voice matters and diversity is celebrated is a true honor for me 🙏🏼. As my third time of being part of making WomenHack a reality in 📍Guadalajara, I can't express enough how important these inclusive spaces are for everyone, as it provides a platform that goes beyond boundaries, welcoming women and men alike to join forces and empower one another in the tech industry 👩🏻💻👨🏻💻 . Which remind us of the power of diversity and inclusion, and how it’s the cornerstone of innovation and growth 🌟. Thank you to all the team members of Improving Paystand and Luxoft for being part of this hashtag #WomenHack edition, it was a pleasure to meet you all! I would like to give a special thanks to Victoria Ochoa Landeros (She/her), Paula Mercado and my parnert Hayde baltazar murillo for all your support and help during the event 👏🏼. Also a heartfelt shoutout to Francesca Marsico for inviting me to contribute to this event for the third time 🙌🏼. Let's keep breaking down barriers and paving the way for a more diverse and innovative industry, not just in Mexico, but across the globe 💪🏼🌎!

WomenHack Guadalajara is returning next week! Get ready for an evening of speed rotations and in-person networking on June 13 🗓️ Muchas gracias to Improving for hosting this session - can't wait! 🤗 #womenhack #speednetworking #womenintech #techevents #diversityintech #techrecruiting

We'll be coming back around to San Diego for an in-person session in October, hosted by the wonderful team at Brain Corp! We're looking exciting companies, innovative tech, and people-focused teams to join us for the evening. If you're keen on getting involved, please throw a 🤙 our way! 😎

🎯 Last week, we teamed up with WomenHack and invited women in Berlin seeking new professional challenges. WomenHack promotes gender equality in tech and helps people get hired at companies committed to diversity in the workplace. 🕒 The event format was “speed dating,” so the attendees had only 5 minutes to introduce themselves to the recruiters. Kudos to our fantastic team: Zienia Hamid Bascha, Mohammad Azaz, Adam Pryce, and Ludovica De Maio. 🤗 We hope you’ve found your perfect match!
