@tdesseyn made his first appearance at @devupconf in St. Louis last year and it did not disappoint. DevUp is a St. Louis developer conference built for developers by developers, covering everything from cloud and DevOps to career growth and soft skills. Taylor delivered two talks: how to navigate today's job search with confidence and why building your online presence matters more than ever. Don't worry, we caught it in 4k. youtu.be/9AYbrBwqNXw?si…

For the developers in here who made a career pivot into tech: what's the one thing from your previous industry that made you better at your job? we ask because the answer is usually more valuable than people realize. #careerpivot #torcdev #techcareers

Where is the market heading in 2026? On this episode of Guidance Counselor 2.0, we sat down with Mike Morris (Global Head of Platform & Talent at Randstad Digital/Torc) and David Rubinstein (COO of SDTimes) as we broke down the role of AI, community, and what’s next. Watch → buff.ly/XVceExl

It's giving end of the week energy and we're here for it. Shoutout to our Ambassador Jeff Jessie (@J3ffJessie) for leading this week's yappy hour. Jeff is a ServiceNow UI Developer Lead at Accenture and one of the people who makes this community what it is. Join us at 1:30pm ET on Discord. Come vent, come celebrate, come sit in silence while devs talk around you. All valid. también en español a las 2:00pm ET con Ximena (@helenismo) luma.com/qrr52hez #torcdev #yappyhour

If you're job hunting in tech and you're doing it alone, you're making it harder than it needs to be. Our discord is full of developers at every stage of their career, people sharing job leads, reviewing each other's resumes, and just talking honestly about the industry. torc.dev/discord #torcdev #discord #techcareers

Yappy Hour en Español | 20 mar, 2PM EST Aquí tus story points no importan, aquí tu velocity no importa. Lo que importa: ¿Cómo estás realmente? Viernes de conversación sin estructura. Solo gente cool hablando de cosas reales. RSVP: luma.com/mkla5fu7 #TorcCommunity #TorcEvents

Looking for your next role? Start here 👀 Catch up on this episode of Guidance Counselor 2.0 with Richie Lampani (Fractional Head of Talent & Talent Strategist) and @tdesseyn as they break down how to navigate today’s job market. Watch now → youtube.com/live/dUk35qMd8…

Q1 is almost over and the hiring market is starting to show which companies actually have budget and which ones were just "exploring." Q2 is historically strong for tech hiring. So now is the time to make sure your materials are ready before the surge. #jobmarket #torcdev #techcareers

The developers getting hired right now aren't always the most technically skilled. They're the ones who are specific about what they want, visible in the right communities, and have someone who can vouch for them. The job board isn't always the first step. #jobmarket #torcdev #techcareers

Real question: what's the one thing on your resume you're not sure about? weird gap? short stint? a role that's hard to explain? career pivot that doesn't look linear? Drop it below. We review these live every other week and we want to hear yours. torc.dev/community #resumetips #torcdev #jobsearch
