Topic:

Given the increasing interest of deep learning (word2vec) and machine learning from students, this will be a real "tech" talk. In this session we'll teach students about the basic real-world neural networks and the word2vec concept.

Structure of the Talk:

First 30 minutes: Introductory session for Deep Learning and word2vec.
Second 30 minutes: Tech Resume Dos and Donts
Last 30 minutes: Q&A and live resume fix from BYOR.

We will be sending out a form to apply to have a live resume fix with Aerin or Rohit soon. We already have a huge demand for this given Aerin and Rohit's unique experience at many desirable tech companies so if you really want to get a 5 minute session with them, we encourage you to put some effort into the form.
