About format
A month ago we started a new project: instagram account, in which cool guys from IT go live and answer questions from viewers in their area of ββexpertise.
Classic interviews where only one person asks questions cannot turn into a full-fledged guide, they are limited by the interests of only the interviewer himself.
We dream of making a collection of interesting and full-fledged guides about all aspects of the life of an IT specialist in a year
These are internships, career growth, team management, learning new technologies, interviews, emigration and the rest.
We chose live broadcasts because this is the closest technological alternative to a tete-a-tete conversation - you can react to the speaker's answer and clarify the important things, as well as directly ask the most interesting thing for you personally.
Why not webinars
Webinars are the last century: an outside service, links to the entrance, mandatory registration, connection from a computer. We want to make knowledge free and as accessible as possible - here is the usual instagram in the hands, there comes a notification about the start of the broadcast. It's as easy as having a facetime call with a friend.
Will there be a record?
Yes, all recordings of the broadcasts are released on IGTV, and in a week on youtube. You can already see record or read the transcript of the broadcast with Ilona Papava on how to get an internship at Facebook and get an offer (Ilona went to the Valley twice for an internship and is now a Senior Software Engineer in the London office of Facebook)
