Getting to learn about what their goals and interests were (as related to GIS) helped expose me to aspects of the industry and most importantly develop professional connections. The atmosphere of the evening social (during the International User's Conference) made it a very relaxed experience.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 03 Jul 2019 14:35:39 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-young-professionals-network-questions/let-s-go-down-memory-lane/m-p/129130#M13 GregoryChristakos 2019-07-03T14:35:39Z Re: Let's go down memory lane.... https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-young-professionals-network-questions/let-s-go-down-memory-lane/m-p/129131#M14 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I love going to the socials, they're laid back and a great chance to meet new people!&nbsp;Great food, drink, and&nbsp;always fun to meet new people at the Esri UC.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 03 Jul 2019 14:37:13 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-young-professionals-network-questions/let-s-go-down-memory-lane/m-p/129131#M14 DanielSieger 2019-07-03T14:37:13Z Re: Let's go down memory lane.... https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-young-professionals-network-questions/let-s-go-down-memory-lane/m-p/129132#M15 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Had a blast at the YPN event at UC 2018!

There are always great opportunities to hear from visionaries and leaders in the field with decades and decades of experience, but then having dedicated moments to spend conversing with my peers in YPN is invaluable. GIS is such a small field, getting to know other young professionals early has really helped me grow as a GIS professional.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 03 Jul 2019 15:15:20 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-young-professionals-network-questions/let-s-go-down-memory-lane/m-p/129133#M16 ParkerHornstein 2019-07-03T15:15:20Z Re: Let's go down memory lane.... https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-young-professionals-network-questions/let-s-go-down-memory-lane/m-p/129134#M17 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>My most favorite memory is the very first YPN in 2015, I was able to ask Jack a question and ESRI got a picture of it.

I ended up striking up a conversation with Caroline, who encouraged me to be confident and apply for a job at Esri. Now, I work at Esri and I’m so glad I went to the event and got to know Caroline and a bunch of other amazing Esri employees, student assistants and other YPN members. You never know where one event may take you!&nbsp;</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 10 Jul 2019 02:08:17 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-young-professionals-network-questions/let-s-go-down-memory-lane/m-p/129137#M20 AmeliaBradshaw 2019-07-10T02:08:17Z
