Standout AI Projects: A Hands-On Career Workshop in New York
Ten candidates, same AI demo. Design the project that stands out, live with Sandhya Kapoor (ex-Meta, PayPal)
Almost everyone in tech now has an AI project on their resume. Hiring managers have seen the same demo ten times.
Tools like Claude make an AI project quick to build, so most of them look alike. This session is about the one that gets picked.
Sandhya Kapoor has led engineering organizations of 500+ people at Meta and PayPal. She’ll show you how the hiring side actually reads an AI project and where most go wrong. Then the room designs a production-grade GenAI system together, stress-tests it, and turns your own project into a story you can tell a recruiter.
The idea behind it: using AI is now expected in every tech role. What gets you hired is a production-standard project on a real problem from your own domain, and being able to defend it in conversation.
PLUS: Network with fellow New York-area engineers, builders, and technology leaders over food and refreshments.
