Tips for EAG
Thanks to Yonatan Cale, posting a few tips from EAG that I give to members of my community (they are half-baked, previously ment as a comment):
(If corrolated with your goals) Reach out to speakers/filter 10+ years of exp beacuse it is usually a good filter for people who you can learn from the most
Ask friends/EA staff who have already been to conferences if they can reccomend who to talk to
Order a motel close to the conference is usually very comfortable (use on booking filters: less than 1 mile + over 8 rating + best price to rating ratio)
Sleeping together with your community members is fun for feeling comfortable at the conferences, and having someone from ‘back home’ to share you experinces with (however, this might make it a comfort zone to not get to know other people)
Would love to hear your opinions on them :)
These are great! I’ll add that you should be careful not to overbook yourself. I would leave an hour and a half in the middle of the day open in case you want to take a nap.
