    sobeys ins 5907 Gorsebrook Ave, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

    Inside the Recruiter's Mind and the Hiring Manager's Pod AI has made it easier than ever to generate a polished resume, and that’s exactly the problem. When every application sounds the same, your personality and specificity become your greatest competitive edge. In this workshop, we move beyond generic templates to give you a practical look at how ATS scanners evaluate your work and, more importantly, what recruiters & hiring managers actually notice when they finally see the human behind the screen. What to expect: 🌟 Masterclass with Vanessa Rodriguez Garcia & Sam Wilson, Recruitment Specialists @ Venor Learn how ATS systems work, what recruiters really look for, and best practices of how to get the most out of AI to make that first draft and not a final answer. Beyond the screen, we’ll dive into the ‘human’ side of the hunt - sharing LinkedIn networking strategies and personal touches that turn cold applications into warm introductions. 🌟 Mentorship Pods with Talent Specialists & Hiring Managers Join domain-specific breakout sessions led by local Halifax tech leaders. These focused pods move beyond the basics to help you master interview articulation, learn the art of storytelling your experience, and understand real-world expectations from […]

    Write Better Code Through Compositional Design

    June 10 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm ADT
    Online

    Do you know that one feature no developer wants to touch? The one that somehow takes forever to update and seems responsible for 80% of the application. The component with dozens of props, flaky tests, and a mysterious workaround nobody fully understands anymore. Systems like that become difficult to maintain. They slow development, erode confidence, and make even small changes feel risky. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Join Sarah Padovani, Web Team Lead, for a free live webinar on compositional design. Sarah will explore how teams can avoid creating monolithic components in the first place, with practical ways to build systems that are easier to understand, test, reuse, and evolve. Let’s stop being afraid of our own codebases. Every codebase has one: the feature no developer wants to touch. It’s too big, too fragile, and somehow responsible for way more than it should be. In this webinar, we’ll look at how compositional design can help teams avoid monolithic components, reduce risk, and build systems that are easier to understand, test, and evolve.

    VOLTA 1800 Argyle Street #Unit 801, Halifax, NS, Canada

    A hands-on walkthrough of Claude Managed Agents, Anthropic's newly shipped infrastructure for production AI agents.

You don't need to write code to follow along. ​Agenda ​6:00 PM — Doors open ​6:30 PM — Talk + live demo (1 hr) 7:30 PM — Q&A (30 min) ​8:00 PM — Networking ​Refreshments provided. ​Speaker ​Burak Teke is a Data & AI Lead at RBC and Co-Founder of Ahenk AI, a Volta-resident startup building voice and text AI agents.
