Description

The field of digital media keeps rapidly evolving, and it's not surprising anymore to wake up to find there's some new technology that totally changes the way things will be done. How does one prepare to enter such a job market on top of all the other existing challenges one would normally face?

A panel of experts discuss the state of the industry and how newcomers and those looking to change careers can break into it. Gain valuable insights into post-Lockdown changes and constants in the industry. As well as, the impact of recent technology, such as A.I., on employment dynamics.

Get answers to such questions as:  landing a job with no experience, crafting a strategic career plan, identifying the most and least in-demand jobs, etc." Join the discussion on navigating the ever-changing job market and preparing for success in 2024 and beyond.

If you're new to the industry you won't want to miss hearing this panel's discussion of these and other questions. And if you're a seasoned professional you know that the only constant is change, and you probably need this information, as much, if not, even more.

Additionally jump start your career journey by connecting with Industry professionals at the event.
