GeeCON 2024: Katarzyna Osuch-Bukowska - Climbing Towards a Managerial Career in Engineering

This presentation is dedicated for all software engineers who at any point have decided to climb the corporate ladder and become an engineering leader. For many years, you most likely only had method interviews that included coding tasks, hard method questions, or architectural design. However, to get a occupation as an engineering manager, you must prepare for a mysterious phase of the recruitment process known as the ‘behavioural interview’. erstwhile I first took part in a behavioural interview for a leadership position in 2018, it was a black box for me. I did not know what to anticipate or how to prepare for it. Now, six years later, as Engineering Director, I have developed my own strategy to deal with these types of challenges. Moreover, as a hiring manager I am besides on the another side, recruiting engineering managers for my department. I hope that learning from my experience will increase your chances of success in landing your dream occupation as a software engineering leader.
