What an event! 💜
Last week, we hosted the very first DSF Career Day 2025, and it was great to see both new and familiar faces again.
This free event brought together leading hiring companies, inspiring talks, and a buzzing community of ambitious people ready to launch, accelerate, or reignite their careers in tech.
Whether attendees were stepping into the industry for the first time, levelling up for their next challenge, or returning after a break, the day gave them tools, confidence, and genuine opportunities to make it happen. From direct conversations with recruiters to masterclasses and panels, people walked away with practical advice, new friends and mentors, and the inspiration to shape the careers they truly want.
Some highlights included:
- Removing Barriers – Unlocking Your Potential and Accelerating Your Career in AI and Tech
- Comeback Stronger: Masterclass for Tech Career Returners
- Negotiating Your Offer with Confidence
- Building a Magnetic Personal Brand
- Insider Secrets to Ace the Technical Interview
This wasn’t just another job fair; it was a day of genuine connection, practical learning, and career inspiration.
🎥 The event recordings will be available soon on the DSF website. In the meantime, please keep sharing your photos- don’t forget to tag Data Science Festival and use the hashtag #DSFCareerDay.
