THE PROGRAM
We are excited to announce that Bloomberg and iRelaunch are partnering again this year to host the second Bloomberg Engineering Returners' Circle in our New York City Headquarters! This is a one-day event on February 6th, 2020 for returning professionals local to the NYC/NJ area. Bloomberg is looking for individuals with software engineering experience and an interest in continuing a career as a software engineer.
Our objective is to provide a safe space to discuss obstacles returners encounter when re-entering the workforce and how these challenges can be turned into opportunities. Content will focus on self-elevation, interviewing skills and how you can prepare to further your career in the software engineering field.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Attendees will participate in coaching workshops, executed by iRelaunch, and exploratory career conversations to develop your self-marketing and career narrative. As a participant you will also benefit from networking with a like-minded peer group of returning professionals within the Returners' Circle.
We will have speaker sessions and time to network with members from Bloomberg Engineering departments, the Bloomberg Women in Technology Community, as well as employees who are members of our Working Families Community!
Following the Returners' Circle, participants may be invited to apply for a permanent role in either the NYC location or the Princeton, NJ location! Whilst the roles are full-time and will require working as an integral part of a team, they will also involve a high level of autonomy.
