In this talk, I'll show by example why it's important to learn marketing trends and give examples on how to stand out amongst the sea of developers applying for your dream job. I'll also touch on how to use marketing knowledge to your advantage when breaking down problems. You should come out of this talk excited to build your personal brand and communicate better with your designer.
