Don’t go into it with any expectations. Just genuinely network with people and you might eventually get something.

Have you ever been? What’s been your experience?

Bring resumes and drop them at booths aggressively. Network with the folks there. My old company (tech) fast-tracked a lot of PM and engineering candidates for interviews based on GHC interactions. We sometimes even did first rounds on site at the conference

The virtual event has been frustrating for many folks that were supposed to have 1:1 and group sessions. Vendors and virtual attendees have been unable to access the platform to facilitate meetings.

Folks that were pre-registered are unable to enter the sessions minutes before or after session starts.

This has been a subpar virtual experience when it comes to dealing with the tools for the virtual attendees.

Is it a sales oriented role, is P & L an integral part of being an Engagement Manager with AWS?
Any inputs will be much appreciated.
