Thanks Emma! Really insightful
For someone with a full time job that is not devrel how do propose they speak at conference when there's limited time to do this?
It depends on your employer. They can use you speaking there to promote the company. So in my case I didn't have to take vacation days. Still I didn't get any time of to prepare, so there's still it takes a lot of spare time to prepare.
Unfortunately I take vacation days! It's not optimal, which is why I'm going to start charging a speaker fee, but it's sadly one of the few options.
If I may jump into this: Have you ever thought about DevRel and doing this as part of your job?
Yep - I don't think I'd want to do this full time
Thanks!
Simon, for us that have considered it and still think we want to do it; do you have any advice? 😅
