Using free and open source software, and participating in the associated
communities, *can* make you more employable! This presentation will
cover how to get started as a community participant and how to gain
résumé-enhancing experience. Special guests representing a variety of
local organizations will then join us for an interactive discussion
about hiring trends, which FOSS skills make a candidate stand out, and
any questions you may have for someone directly responsible for hiring
FOSS-experienced engineers.

Michael Hrivnak, the presenter and panel facilitator, is a Principal
Software Engineer at Red Hat and Team Lead for the Pulp Project. With
strong experience in both software and systems engineering, he is
excited to be writing software for systems engineers. Michael is
passionate about open source software, live music, and reducing energy
consumption.

See you there,
