How To Impress Employers at Infosessions

Top tech talent knows that industry recruiters often bring a stack of
pre-negotiated offers to university infosessions, so that they can snag
programmers and UX designers who really stand out. Instead of spending valuable
time validating a particularly promising candidate’s skillset through a
protracted series of interviews, it’s often more efficient to simply give the
individual an offer right then and there. Internal studies at Google have shown
that experienced recruiters can usually tell if a programmer has ‘what it takes’
just from how they act at infosessions: the insightful questions they ask, the
stickers on their laptop, and how they comport themselves in general.
