GitHub Portfolios for Job Seekers (Career Readiness Workshop)
January 25
4:00–6:00 p.m.
Knight Library Dream Lab (122)

Landing an internship or your first junior-level job in computer programming, data analytics, UX design, and other tech-savvy roles requires more than just a resume skill section with buzzwords --you need to “show your work”! 

Join us for an interactive workshop with UO Libraries: Data Services & the UO Career Center to learn how to create a free digital portfolio on GitHub to highlight your coding and career readiness skills for future employers & open-source projects. 

Great for students with ZERO experience who are creating a game plan for how they want to gain experience in the years ahead to students who are getting ready to graduate and create their portfolio today. ALL ARE WELCOME! 

Come curious and bring your laptop (or you can borrow one!) 45-minute workshop followed by 45 minutes to explore the platform and get advice from library and career services staff, and maybe an alumni or two! 

RSVP on Handshake or with the Library to get reminders and extra resources!
