Normally when a sponsor of Hackerhotel offers a job, it's full time, you need to have (some) experience already working in the area of Information security.
Sometimes (and luckily more and more) companies are open for people that don't have those papers, or are still studying to get those papers.
Today Mylene Nijman of one of our latest sponsors Wortell reached out and they have a cool job for someone still in school!
How awesome is that?
Tuesday evening 8th of April the core orga of Hackerhotel will evaluate this years edition of Hackerhotel. What could we do better ? What should we keep doing? Please provide us with feedback so we can do better next time (more rooms is not an option.... in 2026 ;-) Maybe later..
During Hackerhotel a plastic suitcase was found with content. Today during the WHY fieldday this case was handed to me.
If you are the owner of this plastic suitcase send us an email at: info AT the_name_of_our_event DOT nl
Due to a mistake on our side ordering hackerhotel merch wasn't possible last week. To order go to the website, click Merch, add Procrastinate United and select hoodies, bomberjacks etc. We will extend the deadline to Sunday 6th of April. This is year chance to order merch if you missed out the first time.
After an awesome inspiring and succesful Hackerhotel we received the first submission for next year.
This ROOM key was secretly handed over to me, i leave it to your imagination what this could mean for next year's event!
Will post some post-Hackerhotel stuff next week.
