šŸ‘Follow us on Facebook & Accupass to get the latest update to our global talent connect events. We are excited to be presenting more helpful events to our community in the future!

As globalization continues to mount and companies start valuing diversity as it brings alternative ways of thinking to the team, we believe that employers will not only hire people locally anymore. Instead, companies now hunt for talent worldwide, increasing the chances of finding the best talent from global markets.

The term ā€œGlobal Talentā€ is becoming the norm.

At CakeResume, we have a strong and growing community built up with diversified young talents in the digital era. Our mission is to support everyone in our community to grow in their careers and find a job they really love. Ultimately, we want to help everyone to become a ā€œGlobal Talentā€, creating an ecosystem where people can get connected to great opportunities around the world.

Hence, we are dedicated to hosting high-quality events for our community to engage and learn from others. Since the beginning of 2020, we have invited tech talents around the globe to share their career experience.

Also, in order to help recruiters better understand and prepare for this global talent trend, we have been hosting recruiters meetup to equip recruiters with the latest IT talent recruiting knowledge and let recruiters from different industries exchange ideas.

The 3 Basic Components of Our Events

0225 CakeResume Talent Connect

1. The length of our sharing time:

The length of sharing time for our speakers should be less than 50 minutes long and are typically delivered by a single presenter.

The reason to limit the one-to-many sharing time is that we want to save time for a quality and informative Q&A session. We encourage the idea of people connecting and exchanging experiences ā€” we embrace two-way interactions through our events.

2. Attendance: 80ā€“120 (ppl)

To help talent connect and enhance two-way interactions, we strictly limit the attendees to our events.

3. The Agenda of Our Events

  • 18:50 ~ 19:00 | Admission
  • 19:00 ~ 19:10 | Opening
  • 19:10 ~ 20:00 | Sharing
  • 20:00 ~ 20:10 | Break
  • 20:10 ~ 21:00 | Q&A + Discussions

We Make Our Speakerā€™s Presentation Beautiful

Formatting tricks will never cover up poor sharing. But poor formatting can ruin the listenerā€™s experience, no matter how good your sharing is.

At CakeResume, we are helping these inspiring speakers we invite to make presentations that look appealing and interesting to watch. This article below includes seven useful guidelines that we provide to our speakers, aiming to give attendees to our events a great experience.
