Hello, I happen to have a ticket for grace hopper, and am confused about a few things.
I’m currently pretty busy and don’t have time to attend everything. So I’m not quite sure what I should participate in and what I can skip.
I signed up for a few 1 on 1s, really any that were open - but the ones I was most interested in were filled up by the time I looked. Will there be more spots later?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Hi guys, this is super last moment but I wanted to know if any of you have attended GHC before, what all should I discuss during 1:1 meetings and what all to include in the elevator pitch? Do you have any other tips for do's and don'ts during 1:1s?
Even if you haven't attended GHC but still have suggestions, please let me know.
Hey guys! I got a scholarship from my college to attend Grace Hopper this year and I have a few questions.
-
When I submitted my resume in their database, the formatting got super messed up. Did that happen to anyone else? Idk if I should resubmit with another resume or leave it the way it is.
-
How do you get your resume to actually be noticed by companies? TBH I kinda used a bunch of key words, but I'm wondering if it's better to be not as vague and narrow down. I'm worried I won't have as many companies reach out to me otherwise.
-
I guess building off on 2, do companies really reach out? How many reached out to you?
I just had a 1:1 interview at Grace Hopper and I think it went ok, but something that really stood out to me was that "Final Round interviews were supposed to be this week but if we proceed with you, it'll be in 2 weeks"TLDR; I'm at a CS Target school, but very recently changed into a tech major. Screwed up last year completely in internships, but am a junior now, missed the GHC conference deadline, but have been getting a few emails from recruiters from the GHC resume database. I can confidently do Leetcode Easy, but I struggle a lot on Medium to Hards, but don't know how much I can grind Leetcode in the next two weeks.
I'm worried because I think I might've messed up this year as well in not applying fast enough and researching about these conferences earlier in terms of internships. Are my chances at an internship completely shot? (not intending on going for FAANG - I don't think I'm at that caliber, but I want a better internship than the unpaid startup experience last summer)
Now that it is virtual, I really have to try hard to stand out. What are some funny ways to greet recruiters?

I saw that GHC 2021 is going to be virtual again. I've always wanted to attend GHC but the admission price seems pretty high. I'm not a student either, I'm a senior-level tech professional currently in DevOps, but I'm actively looking for job opportunities and trying to grasp what my next career move should be. I know that my employer won't send me to this event as I've been open with them about seeking other opportunities, so if I purchase the early bird admission (registration opens today), it would be $500+ out of my pocket.
Has anyone here attended a GHC event, specifically the virtual event? Are there a lot of career and technical learning opportunities at these events that you find it's worth the cost? What specifically about your experience did you find of value (i.e. speakers, personal/professional career growth, job hunting, networking, etc)?
I appreciate your feedback and honestly. <3
Hi so my university was kind enough to give me a free ticket to GHC. I know it’s like a career fair there? I was wondering what I can do to stand out and get an internship for summer 2022. Currently I have only taken intro to DS and Algo. In fall I’m taking Machine organization and discrete math.
Also I’m a rising sophomore , evidently I haven’t taken a lot of CS classes, is that a put off for employers ?
I have a 3.75 GPA. I have a data analytics research going on right now (UROP) and it’s using R and some statistics.
I have 3 projects , using stacks and queues, other two are using Bootstrap and JS , and node.JS and express.JS. But that’s much it.
I was also a TA last semester and will be incoming TA next semester also for the same CS class.
I’m going to start reviewing DS Algo concepts again before going to career fairs because it works better for me.
Is there any other recommendation? Should I make a elevator pitch?
I happen to have a ticket and I’ve never been to one before, just wondering how much commitment I need to make for it - do I need to attend it every hour it’s open?
My classes just happen to start on Sept 29th (GHC is Sept 27th - Oct 1). So I’m wondering what I should do here. Is there anything I need to prepare besides submitting my resume into the database? Thanks in advance. Would appreciate any advice.
OSU is sponsoring me to attend GHC and the guy in charge says they received extra tickets. If any of my fellow CS ladies want one, please DM. You just have to email him, it’s first come, first serve... ✌️
Edit: OSU students only please, don’t make me look bad...
