Hint: it's not just about talent. Join us for a live meetup on 27/05, where Koji Pereira, Head of Design Lyft Business, "Ex-Google" will walk us through the whole process, from application to immigration.
This will be a rare opportunity to personally ask Koji everything you were afraid to ask, including: "what would it take for your company to hire me?" In this event we will cover questions like:
About hiring and immigration
- Could you walk us through the hiring process of a remote worker for your design team?
- What's the difference between hiring someone at home and someone abroad?
- Is it the same if you're hiring remotely?
- What are some common misconceptions about the process?
- What are the costs involved, both for the company and for the applicant?
- Are there any more obligations after you've arrived?
About selection
- How to stand out on a hiring process when you're a foreigner competing with US citizens?
- Are different cultural backgrounds an asset when working with global products?
- Do you have minimum requirements when hiring someone from abroad? Would you hire international junior designers or interns?
- What are some deal-breakers when hiring someone from abroad?
- How to negotiate a fair salary when I don't have experience in the country?
All money from the tickets of this event will be contributed to World-Class Designer School: a college-level, tuition-free design school focused on preparing young and talented African designers for the local and international digital product market. Build the design community you believe in.
