Tech Ladies Digest - Week of 11/9
Curious what it’s really like to work at a fast-growing startup?
Sponsored by:
Hey
If you’ve ever wondered what it truly takes to join a fast-growing fintech startup — and how to make the leap from solid engineer or product manager to strategic leader — this event is for you. In “Career Paths at Glide: Ask the CEO & an Early-Career Engineer”, you’ll hear directly from both founder & CEO Gautam Ajjarapu and engineer Rayva Verma about building a fintech platform from zero to $4M in revenue in just two years, solving complex AI-powered banking problems, and recruiting smart, agile engineers ready to make an impact right away.
Whether you’re exploring a pivot into fintech, looking to move into startup environments, or just curious how your role might evolve — this session is packed with actionable insights. They’ll dig into real hiring processes, growth frameworks, and what success looks like when the roadmap isn’t fully drawn out yet.
👉 Reserve your spot now — this is a free live event catered to women in tech who are serious about growth, connection, and strategic career moves.
P.S. Got friends in product or engineering? This is a great one to invite — the Q&A format means your questions get answered live, so bring your goals, your ambition, and your curiosity.
What if UX recruiters messaged you about jobs on LinkedIn?
Hey, I’m Sarah Doody 👋 I know you may have a love / hate relationship with LinkedIn. Yet if you’re looking for a UX or Product job, you can’t ignore LinkedIn.
LinkedIn is a search engine for UX recruiters and hiring managers to find people (just like how Laura, in the above graphic, was hired after being found on LinkedIn.)
So, if you want to show up in LinkedIn search results, you have to optimize your LinkedIn profile just like you’d SEO a web page.
Of course, you also have to have a strong resume, portfolio, etc. But yes, it IS possible to stand out on LinkedIn even if you feel like an invisible genius right now.
Join me this Tuesday, November 11 for a free workshop, “How to stand out and get hired in UX, without even applying.”
