Upon arrival our Events Team will be ready to check you in. Please let them know which company you are representing and get your name tag.
Once you are checked in our team will take you to your company table for the evening so you can set up your marketing materials and get everything ready before the event starts. Make sure you get some food and refreshments and a bathroom break before the event gets started!
"How many candidates will be at the event?"
This number depends on the overall turnout, usually we aim to get 80-125 developer registrations. Turnout rates can vary from 70% down to 50% in some markets, so expect anywhere between 40-70+ candidates.
It is worth mentioning that you will meet more candidates and get more engagement if you attend with 6 people vs. attending with a single attendee.
"How many companies will be at the event?"
Usually, 10-20 companies will be at the event interviewing developers, each company has its own table to conduct interviews and developers go from table to table chatting with recruiters.
"What's the format of the event?"
We use speed dating as our signature format for all our HackerX Events. The event also includes open networking and keynotes, for a total duration of 3 hours.
We open the event with sponsor company remarks and finish with open networking. All our events have approximately 2 hours of rapid interviews at your company table (each interview lasts between 5-7 minutes), and around an hour of open networking, before and after the rapid interviews.
"How are the interviews conducted?"
Our team will break down companies into two lines and developers go from beginning to end of these lines - spending 5-minutes chatting with each company at their table. Please make sure you do not go over the established interviewing time to ensure the session is smooth for all parties involved.
"I cannot find where the event is taking place or it just lists TBD in the location field, where is the event happening?"
We don't post a venue address on our event pages until we have all the details. Our Events Team may be currently working on the back end getting a venue confirmed and will send an update once it's finalized.
When signing up for our events, please use the venue details & address that our Event Organizer shares with you via email a few days before the event, since the venue information listed in your ticket may have changed.
"I signed up as a Sponsor, how do we go about our 6-7 minute speech?"
If you signed up as a Sponsor you will get 6-7 minutes to give a company introduction to all attendees right at the beginning of the event. For this presentation, make sure you contact our Event Organizer at the venue so we can get your speaker's name and job title to introduce them.
If you plan on using slides, please bring them in a USB thumb drive so we can put them up on a projector. You can also do an impromptu presentation without slides so don't worry if you don't have time to prepare slides.
*Event Schedules may vary from event to event. Your event start time can be found on your event tickets, if you have any questions, please reach out to the event organizer.
