Initially recorded as episode 4, this episode comes a week early because of an exciting opportunity I don't want you to pass up on! Hack The Nu is a hackathon happening on Oct. 5, 2019 – Oct. 6, 2019, it is a great way to start your hackathon journey so make sure to apply! If you have any reservations about attending a hackathon, this episode is for you. We have Disha and Zubash from Hackademics break down what hackathons are and why you need to attend one. They shatter the misconceptions on who hackathons are for, speak about projects they've worked on, and how these works have helped them in their professional lives. They also provide us behind-the-scene insight into planning for such an event, and talk about Sheridan Hackville – an internationally recognized hackathon by Major League Hacker (MLH) and the first college Hackathon here in Ontario!
