Looking for a job in tech? Join PDXWIT for an evening dedicated to helping you find your next job. You get what you put in, so come prepared to share with copies of your resume. When you register, let us know what you need most right now.

  • Resume review

  • Mock Interviews

  • Portfolio review

  • Q&A with recruiters

We’ll have a short presentation on how to get a remote job. Nicolle Merrill, author of Punch Doubt in the Face: How to upskill, change careers, and beat the robots, will talk about the types of remote work that fit your lifestyle, how to find remote jobs, and how to stand out in a remote job search. At the end of the talk, one attendee will win a free copy of Nicolle’s new book.

We’re also looking for volunteers to participate in the resume and portfolio reviews, as well as the mock interviews. If you’re interested, please select “Volunteer” in the registration process. If you are volunteering and would also like to participate in the event, please only register once so we have an accurate headcount.
