Rewriting the Code

Rewriting the Code is proud to be a part of the $150M commitment from Pivotal Ventures, Melinda French Gates’ organization, to help women thrive in the workplace. “Women have made large gains in women's power and influence in the workplace; however, our research shows that women are more likely to face barriers and make tough trade-offs when advancing in their careers,” said Renee Wittemyer, Vice President of Program Strategy at Pivotal. "We are thrilled to provide the necessary funding to support organizations who are helping to remove those barriers so that women can thrive at work."

We can always count on URx to create a magical event! Last week, two of our stellar RTC team members traveled to the #URxLeadersSummit to connect and gain insights from the recruiting community. A special thank you to the URx team for providing a platform for our VP of Strategy & Operations, Jessica Furness, to share insights from our community in her live session, "Building the Future Workforce: Strategies for Hiring Early Talent in EMEA." If you missed the opportunity to meet with the team in San Diego, connect with Jessica Furness and Nicole W., to learn how you can get involved with our community!

We know this doesn't cover all the wins the community has been sharing in Slack, but here is just a peek into what our community is celebrating this season! 🏆✨ No matter how you end the year, celebrate all of the hard work, new habits, and small moments that have brought you to where you are today!

The season of giving is here! 🎁 There are only a few days left in the year to help provide critical funds to undergraduate women in tech who need our support. When you donate to RTC, your contributions go directly toward the Women in Tech Fund, which provides emergency financial assistance to undergraduate women in tech facing unexpected challenges on their path to graduation. Help close the gap for women in tech who need your support by donating today: https://teamrtc.co/4fn8nzy. #WomenInTech #GiveBack #SupportWomenInTech

What an experience getting to attend a regional hackathon at Microsoft's Enfield, London office! 🤩 Every year, Microsoft hosts regional hackathons to dive deep into the tech world and pave the way for learning acceleration and improved educational outcomes. The theme for this hackathon was "AI for Neurodiverse Learners," and RTC got a special invite for ten members to participate in two teams. Both teams did a spectacular job, and one team walked away as the winner of the best customer solution! 💡✨ Congratulations!

Want to connect your talent team with 1350+ top women in tech? 👀 To help bridge the gap between companies looking to fill open roles in the new year and women in tech seeking internships and recent grad positions, we created our newest spring annual recruiting event, RTC TechConnect.

This event is your opportunity to: 💡 Share your insights through Industry Tech Talks 🤝 Network with members through the Career Exploration Lounge 💼 Showcase your "just-in-time" roles virtually through the job and internship expo 📈 Access insightful post-event data to optimize your strategy If you don't have open roles, this is the perfect time to engage your employee resource group members as volunteers and mentors to build relationships with women pursuing careers in tech.
