Globe recently held its inaugural Code to Career Hackathon, bringing together top tech talent from Metro Manila to solve real-world challenges and compete for exclusive career opportunities within the company.
The one-day hiring hackathon was designed to break the mold of traditional recruitment, allowing participants to showcase their coding expertise, develop innovative solutions, and vie for exciting rewards.
“At Globe, we are constantly seeking bright, driven individuals who can help push the boundaries of technology,” Raul Macatangay, Globe Chief Information Officer. “This hackathon is more than just a competition—it’s a gateway for aspiring tech professionals to gain hands-on experience, connect with industry leaders, and take the next big step in their careers with us.”
“As a company deeply dedicated to innovation and career development, Globe is excited to offer this platform to emerging tech talent. This event reflects our belief in nurturing individuals by giving them the opportunity to showcase their coding skills and tackle real-world challenges” said Keith Batallones, Globe Head of Engineering and Digital Solutions.
During the hackathon, participants were guided by mentors from Globe and its partners— Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google, UpLift Code Camp, and F5 —who provided valuable insights, resources, and guidance throughout the day.
This collaboration further highlighted Globe’s dedication to promoting continuous learning and mentorship within the tech community. At the same time, it provided an environment where tech enthusiasts could thrive and develop their professional paths with Globe.
“The Code to Career event became a platform for newbie and seasoned professionals to solve real life challenges through code, cloud and AI. The top participants get a chance to win awesome, cool prizes and those qualified get a job offer on the spot. Grateful to the participants who chose to spend their Saturday learning and having fun through hacking and building their network,” said Jesse Liamzon, Senior Director for Architecture and Engineering.
Globe continues to be a premier destination for tech talent in the Philippines. The hackathon further solidified the company’s leadership in the tech industry and reinforced its commitment to empowering the next generation of tech leaders.
For those looking to take the next step in their tech journey, Globe offered various roles across different teams that emphasize creativity, innovation, and collaboration. The company hired 15 new employees from the hackathon event, including engineers and developers.
