How to Land a
Job in Tech

Arrive at reception, register, and get settled. The Box team will welcome you in and hand out the day's agenda.

A grounding overview of where the tech industry is heading, the career growth opportunities on offer, and the demand for diverse skills. Plus a look at Box's culture, why it's a great place to start out, and a 5-minute Q&A.

What "go-to-market" actually means, the different functions inside it, and the strategies tech companies use to win and keep customers. Salary ranges included so you know what to expect.

Pick your first 30-minute breakout: Marketing, Sales, or Customer Success / Consulting. You'll get an overview of the role, the responsibilities, the skills that matter, plus an interactive Q&A.

Round two — pick a second function and dive in. Same format: role overview, responsibilities, skills needed, and an interactive Q&A to ask anything specific you're curious about.

Box GTM leaders share their career journeys, the challenges they've hit, and the lessons they've picked up along the way. Our current placement students join the panel too — sharing what it's actually like working in GTM right now, how they're learning and growing, and their perspective as early-career Boxers. 10-minute Q&A to wrap, so you get both the long-view and the in-the-moment view.

The practical bit: how to market yourself and your career, what hiring teams actually look for in an application, and what differentiates a strong CV, cover letter, interview and assessment centre — especially when you're just starting out. Straight from Box's HR team.

Final thoughts, next steps, and a chance to connect with the speakers and your fellow attendees before you head off.
