About this Event
Finding your place in the tech and communications world can feel like both an adventure and a puzzle. With so many career paths, industries, and workplace cultures to explore, how do you know where your skills and passions align best?
Join WCT BC for a Speed Mentoring Event, in partnership with the Discovery Foundation, for an evening dedicated to Finding Your Fit in Tech & Communications. Through a series of short, focused conversations with experienced Mentors, you’ll gain insider perspectives on diverse roles, industries, and work environments—helping you better understand where you can thrive.
This interactive event offers one hour of small group discussion with professionals and leaders from across the sector, as well as opportunities to connect with peers who are navigating similar career questions. Come ready to ask, share, and discover practical advice that will help you chart your own path with confidence. No matter where you are on your career journey, this is your chance to explore career options, sharpen your understanding of the industry, and build meaningful relationships that will support your growth.
