Agenda for Hiring & Job Hunt Mastery focused 135th DevClub.lv

• Dmitrijs Lebedevs from EPAM will give a talk “Beyond Tricky Puzzles: A New Approach to Tech Interviews“
  Traditional tech interviews often rely on tricky puzzles that don’t really show how good a developer is. In this talk, I’ll share my experience changing the way we interview developers. I’ll explain why it’s important to focus on practical skills and problem-solving, not just memorization. You’ll learn how to make your interviews better and fairer, so you can find the best talent for your team.

Today, as an explorer of entangled pathways of Software Development, he invites you to walk along with him during his talk.

• Jevgenija Sahovala from IT Camp will give a talk about “Make your (LinkedIn) profile work for you and your career”
  The situation in IT job market changed drastically in the last couple of years – from candidate market, where company is searching for at least somehow fitting candidate, to the employer market, where employer choses its next employee very contentiously. Old approaches do not work any more – candidates have to search for new ones. How can you stand out of the crowd? How to become better visible and attractive for recruiters? How can you make your profile speak for you?

• Sergey Kibish from Teya will give the talk “The Game”
  Hiring is one of the most confusing and challenging aspects of the IT industry. It’s a strange process – one where everyone seems to be playing by different rules. It’s like looking into a fractured mirror, where the full picture is never quite visible. From moments of confidence to unexpected rejections that leave you thinking, “Did I just get ghosted?” it’s a true emotional rollercoaster. So, is there a way to hack the game?
  In “The Game,” Sergey shares insights from every side of hiring—interviewer, process designer, and applicant. This talk isn’t just about tips; it’s about understanding why the process feels like a maze and how knowing the “why” can give you clarity. You’ll leave with a new perspective and a few thoughts that might just make things click.
