I had a fantastic time chatting with Josh Torres for a fireside chat with Airtable.
Josh is an incredibly authentic speaker, and I’m glad I had the opportunity to share the space with him. The Tablets (nickname for Airtable employees) are lovely folks, and I appreciated how engaged they were throughout our conversation. ✨
Here are the topics we discussed:
- intersectional identity
- the challenges of breaking into tech as a Latina
- customs and traditions (Peruvian and Puerto Rican) 🇵🇪🇵🇷
- why it’s important to recruit Latinx
- recruiting diverse candidates as a hiring manager
- the importance of mental health in this new remote world
- how you can support Techqueria
- how Techqueria uses Airtable as a nonprofit
- my experience leading the Fuego ERG at Slack
- how ERGs should be structured and supported
I shared some slides on what I’ve learned from co-leading the Fuego ERG at Slack — feel free to take a look as well: https://lnkd.in/drmwbeuc
A huge thank you to Hector Baptista for moderating and Hannah Sherrick for coordinating. 💛
