"Human Skills for a Career in Tech" - in partnership with Snap Inc. 👻🚀 This week, we hosted an exciting live event for 70 students (aged 16-19) from the UK, Spain, Nigeria, and UAE. Students heard directly from Snap employees, exploring the importance of 'human skills' like empathy, leadership, and creativity in their roles. Connecting students with employees is game-changing. From tackling imposter syndrome to sharing networking tips, these are real-world insights and conversations students rarely experience. Ultimately, #empathy goes beyond just feeling for others—its about understanding your role in the world and gaining new perspectives on people, careers, and everything around you 🌎 #human #skills #careers #education #students
