Join us at our Helsinki or Tampere office for an authentic after-work session where we pull back the curtain on the evolving IT landscape. Whether you’re a seasoned professional, a career switcher, or just starting your journey, this event is your chance to hear the real stories behind the CVs.

We’re moving beyond the buzzwords to explore how AI is actually changing our daily work and what it takes to stay resilient in a fast-paced industry. This session is led by the talented women of Eficode, who are ready to share not just their wins, but also the "major mistakes" and lessons learned along the way.

What to expect:

  • Diverse Career Stories: Hear from our panel about their unique paths into tech. We’ll discuss the reality of career growth, from celebrating successes to navigating the setbacks that shaped us.

  • AI in Practice: A transparent look at how AI has already shifted our roles. We’ll discuss what it means to be a "future-proof" IT professional and which skills will matter most in the coming years.

  • Join the Conversation: This isn't just a lecture! We want to hear your insights, too. We’ve designed this session to be interactive, encouraging you to share your perspectives and ask the tough questions.

  • Networking & Good Vibes: As always, the main goal is to bring the community together. Enjoy some refreshments, share some laughs, and expand your network at Eficode’s office.
