### Workshop: How To Succeed As A Junior
2385

2486
This interactive workshop puts you right in the center of the conversation. You’ll join a small group of fellow junior developers, each guided by an experienced mentor. Together, you’ll tackle real-world questions like: How do you identify transferable skills during a career change? What’s the best way to highlight your strengths in an interview? How do you stay motivated when the job gets tough?
2587

2688
Each group will explore these topics through open discussion, drawing on personal experiences and shared insights. At the end, we’ll come back together so each group can share one or two of their best takeaways with everyone. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and your voice—this is a session built for learning from each other.
