Who are you?

​It's been 1-5 years since you've become an engineer. You’re technically strong and feel comfortable building and shipping products.

​You work at a startup and wish there were more mentorship and career development opportunities. You wish to connect with other engineers, but you've already met everyone at your company!

​What are the things you need to get to the next level?

​Join this free, online Career Conversations series hosted by the founders of Exaltitude.


TOPIC 1

  • How to build meaningful relationships to help you spot and get staffed on good projects that actually propel your career

  • ​A decision framework for knowing when it's best to keep climbing the ladder or to look for stellar opportunities in other companies

  • ​Tips for navigating team dynamics so you enable the team to win while also advancing your own career

Speaker: Soyoung

​Soyoung has been a top level sales professional and started coaching in 2014. Her areas of expertise include goal planning, productivity, and leadership development. As a coach and a mother of four, she is passionate about helping people reach their highest potential. Unleashing people’s secret powers is her secret power.
In her spare time, she reads, shuffle-jogs, and cooks pescetarian keto meals for her family.

TOPIC 2

Whether you're interested in applying for a FAANG company or a startup, you need a strong resume to represent yourself.

​We will select a few participants to give them a mini resume makeover and answer questions on resume writing.

​The full service I normally provide to my coaching clients is $995. Submit your resume for a chance at a free resume makeover.

Speakers: Jean Lee

​I’ve been working as a Software Engineer and a Hiring Manager for the past 10+ years. Most recently, I was the 19th engineer at WhatsApp, prior to the $18 billion acquisition by Facebook.

​I have done an average of 3-5 interviews/week while at Facebook. I'll show you the tips and tricks on acing the technical interview process.

​I’m also the founder of Exaltitude. My passion is in nurturing and educating the future leaders of Silicon Valley!

Interested in joining the EXA Leadership Circles?

The EXA Leadership Circle is a small group of engineers who meet once a week for 6 weeks to support each other and learn new skills. Our Leadership Circle will be a place where we can expand our networks and help each other achieve our goals.
At each meeting, we’ll dive into a different topic, ranging from identifying our strengths to mastering the art of self-promotion and networking.

The applications are open for the next cohort. Don't miss your opportunity!
