Ever wondered what it's like to attend AfroTech, the groundbreaking conference for black tech professionals? We're pulling back the curtain on our experiences, sharing insights on the sense of community, networking opportunities, and the valuable lessons learned. Join us and see how it’s more than just a tech conference, it’s a celebration of blackness and innovation.

In our chat, we welcome the dynamic Chenae Erkerd, popularly recognized as Recruiter Cousin. Chenae takes us on her career journey, from not passing the bar to becoming a tech recruiter and motivational speaker. She serves up a dish of her wisdom, sharing how she successfully juggles her diverse roles and cultivates meaningful relationships with her audience. On the menu, we have her thoughts on tech recruitment, dealing with rejections, and how to shoot your shot in the job market.

We're also cracking open the can of worms that is salary negotiation. It's an uncomfortable topic, especially within the black community, but we're here to change that. We dig into the societal factors that influence black people's salary negotiations and offer tips on how to demand what you're worth. Plus, we share effective job search strategies, resume crafting tips, and discuss the remote work culture. So, get comfy and let's dive into the nitty-gritty of job market navigation, salary negotiations, and more!
