DESCRIPTION

Hiring from GA is a great ROI. Skip the tedious resume screenings and connect with multiple candidates in one event. GA candidates can bring diverse professional experience to your team. Many of them are looking for junior-level roles aligned with the skills they just developed at GA, while others are suited for mid-career, management-level opportunities.

Meet the Tech Talent

This event features three types of candidates:

• UX designers adept in full lifecycle design, from user research to sketching and ideation to building wireframes and clickable prototypes, using Sketch and Invision. GA's designers have completed four full-lifecycle UX design projects, including a real-world client project.
• Software Engineers, skilled in Git, Javascript, jQuery, HTML, CSS, Ruby, Rails, Node, Express, React.js, MongoDB, SQL, problem-solving, planning, modeling, and maintaining applications with client-API architectures, as well as software engineering principles including design patterns, sorting algorithms, big O notation, recursion, and data structures from linked lists to binary trees. These engineers have worked in teams and independently to build functioning sites that solve real-world business problems.
• Data scientists, data analysts, and data engineers with experience in data visualization, regression and modeling techniques, machine learning, and tools like Python, SQL, Tableau, and Hadoop. Our skilled coders and statisticians have collected and transformed extremely large datasets into usable insights with predictive power.
