Who are we?
#

Tech Worker? Out of Work? Recently laid off? Taking a break?

This is your scene.

If you worked in tech, but are now out of tech, then the OWT Scene is your place. We’re fellow tech workers who find ourselves either voluntarily or involuntarily Out of Work in Tech.

What do we do?
#

Mainly, the OWT scene is to connect with folks with similar interests. We’re not a career networking group, though that can be part of what being in the OWT scene does. We’re just like-minded people with similar interests building a community.

We discuss anything and everything. We can talk shop, industry rumours, job hunting tips, pitch ideas. But mainly, we connect outside of Slack/Email/Stand-ups/Zoom and in-person. They say it’s good for you to do it occasionally, so we get our quota in.

Who can contribute?
#

The OWT scene is open to anyone who has worked in tech in any role. Devs, Support, Sales, Marketing, Product, HR and all other departments. Enterprise, small-business, open-source, government or anything else.
