Thursday Talk Introduction

Having dislodged banks and consultancies as graduates’ dream workplaces, big tech attracted hundreds of thousands of talents in the past years. As people from different backgrounds, in different stages of their careers flooded into the tech industry, they are also plagued by different concerns. Some are not clear about the career path from a college graduate to a senior engineer/manager position in tech companies. Some may wonder about the difference between big tech and start-ups. Many want to know more about typical pitfalls during their early career. For those coming from a non–tech background, it is also interesting to know how they can set their steps into this thriving area.
To answer those questions, we invited XXX from ABC company and XXX from XYZ company to our Thursday talk this week. Both XXX and XXX are currently managers at big tech firms, and they will be happy to share about their career paths and answer audiences’ questions during the talk.
