A strong portfolio doesn’t just show code, it tells a story about how you solve problems. In this session, we’ll unpack how to design a portfolio that speaks the language of business while showcasing your technical depth. You’ll learn how to pick the right kinds of projects, structure them so they’re easy to evaluate, and present them in ways that attract referrals and inbound opportunities. Whether you’re starting from scratch or refining what you already have, this session will help you turn a portfolio into your most powerful job-hunting asset.

What Employers Are Really Looking For in Data Roles

Thursday, October 30, 2025

Oct 30, 2025

11:00AM EDT

Landing a role in data isn’t just about your resume or how you perform in an interview, it’s about signaling that you’d be a great fit throughout the process. This session with Albert Bellamy gives the view from the employer’s perspective: what makes someone stand out on paper, what qualities predict success in the first six months, and how teams weigh technical skills against communication, business sense, and collaboration.
