Career Mingle 5.0, is the premier 3 day virtual conference connecting diverse talent with today’s most competitive tech employers. Debuting October 1 -3, Career Mingle announced that the online event will have three tracks with over 30+ sessions, virtual career fair, and hackathon while featuring industry-leading speakers, experts, and influencers participating in keynotes, live panel discussions, webinars, and lightning talks.
Career Mingle has created a virtual environment that will play host to students, entrepreneurs, early to mid career professionals, and senior executives for three days of educational, insightful, and career-advancement discussion.
