Agenda
9:30AM–10:00AM
Keynote: Going Beyond Resumes
What makes a truly good hire?
It’s a question that’s difficult to answer. It’s part technical skill, part knowledge, and part attitude/drive. But, none of this is easily captured through resumes and processes that are typically used to determine who is worth the limited time engineers and recruiters have to offer. We’re left with a very narrow definition of “fit.”
Yet, in 2022, our organizations expect more. Our candidates expect more. And, the community at large expects more. If we are truly going to create highly effective and diverse engineering organizations, Talent Acquisition leaders must rethink the systems, partnerships, and approaches to get a clearer picture of what’s really there when looking at a candidate– and they must do so with fewer resources.
This keynote is an immersive experience where you’ll come face to face with your own biases and learn how to surpass them.
10:15AM–10:45AM

10:45AM–11:15AM
A Neuroscientist’s Perspective on Winning Top Talent
While every organization intends to create a fair hiring process that’s inclusive to all, bias can easily creep in–and often in unexpected ways.
In this session, IO Psychologists CapitalOne will share how they’ve leveraged science-backed approaches to minimize bias in the hiring process, ensue they’re measuring what matters for the job, and create a consistent process that enables “silver medalist” candidates to transfer across various engineering teams.
You’ll leave with a better understanding of how you can create structure across your various engineering teams, achieve compliance, and ensure your candidates have an equitable interview experience.
11:30AM–12:00PM
Coming Soon!
Over the last several years, we’ve seen (yet again) how quickly economic conditions can change. This is particularly challenging for recrutiers, who often have to slow hiring during downturns, but quickly hit the gas pedal as conditions begin to improve. This pendulum swing can make it hard to move fast enough, especially with limited resources.
In this session, we’ll explore commonalities between recruiting organizations that have mastered the ability flex and fare downturns well, then discuss how you should be preparing for the next swing when aggressive hiring returns.
12:00PM–12:30PM
How to Interview More Candidates with Fewer Resources: A Dropbox Story
“Sure! Send more candidates my way! I have tons of time to write questions, conduct interviews, and score responses” — No engineer, ever.
In today’s economic climate, recruiters are being asked to do more with fewer resources. When it comes to technical hiring, this challenge becomes even more heightened, given the amount of resources it takes recruiters and engineers to identify potential talent, then validate their skills.
In this session, SPEAKER NAME will walk you through how Dropbox re-thought their hiring process to include 2x more candidates in their pipeline while saving over 12,000 engineering hours. They’ll also how they analyzed the recruiting funnel to make incremental improvements to ensure they weren’t losing candidates as they revolutionized their recruiting process.
12:30PM–1:30PM
