Do you interact them during the day? Or are they at other companies

Id just sit down next to them and order and drink and introduce yourself and ask about their work and slowly Segway into personal interests if the conversation is going well. I wouldn’t overthink it

Ideally talk to people in a group setting so it doesn't get misconstrued as ~an advance~. Offer to include others in a group scenario, start off with open ended questions about shared experiences (e.g. how did you find today's conference?)

The hotel bar is usually a good place to strike up convo

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
