Just relocated to vegas after 2 years in NYC and whewwww is the scene different here.

Any advice on how to build my network? Any events or conferences coming up that I should look out for?

If you're looking for professional networking, I would try to keep track of some of the conferences that take place here (casino, finance/investing, etc.) and try to get in. Often times, even paid conferences have free expo hall passes available if you look, and it's a great way to get in front of people in your industry.

There are also some groups that are part of the startup scene, like Tech Alley, StartupNV, or Vegas Chamber of Commerce.

I would seek out groups that have similar hobbies/pasttimes as you. Consider MeetUp or Eventbrite.

Also the libraries are nice places to meet people if you attend the events they host, too.

I am sure there are many other ways to meet people but this kinda worked for me.

Hi Fishes,
My total experience is 5 in QA, I attended Deloitte interview. First round was technical and it went quite well, they asked lot of theory questions. I answered few and quite I was not sure of answers. She gave feedback like my communication and confidence level is good and project wise I'm having good knowledge and coming to concept wise it's not upto the mark for experience. So my query is will they call me for next round?I really wanna get selected since Deloitte is mydream company
