  Professional Topic

  Proof Over Pitch: Embracing Skill-Based Interviews

  Speaker: Krista Deguffroy, BA, MA

   Traditional interviews often favor extroverted storytelling and rely on a candidate's ability to convince of their skills and experience. However, most interviews lack a way to see the skills demonstrated in action. In Proof Over Pitch: Embracing Skill-Based Interviews, we’ll examine how shifting to a skills-based approach allows companies to better assess the skills they're hiring for, reduce subjective bias, and make more informed hiring decisions. We'll discuss practical strategies for designing interviews that prioritize demonstrated skills.  

  
  

  Krista Deguffroy is an equity and diversity professional with almost a decade of experience working within the field of DEI and talent development. While her roles have spanned across DEI, her area of specialty has been neurodiversity and disability inclusion. After 10 years in corporate financial services, she made the switch to non-profit consultancy and joined the team at Neurodiversity in the Workplace. She partners with companies to create more neuroinclusive cultures, practices, and hiring programs. Krista holds a Master’s degree in Employment and Labor Relations which was her first introduction into the world of disability advocacy and belonging strategy. Krista’s career has included the launch and growth of multiple neurodiversity hiring programs, employee affinity groups, and leading DEI workshops for both internal and external communities. She is most proud of her work within neurodiversity and looks forward to growing the community within the Greater Atlanta area.

  NEW FOR JULY - Professional SPEED Networking Breakfast 

  Speed Networking:

  Make Meaningful Connections in Minutes

  Join us for a dynamic Speed Networking Event designed to spark collaboration, connection, and professional growth—fast! Whether you're a seasoned expert or just expanding your circle, this is your chance to meet fellow professionals across a range of industries in a fun, fast-paced format.

  Here’s how it works:
  - Attendees will pair up in groups of two.

  - Each person will take a few minutes to share who they are, what they do, and a bit about their company or organization.

  - Then it's the other person’s turn to do the same.

  - After 8 minutes, we switch! New partner, new perspective, new potential connection.

  You’ll rotate through multiple rounds, giving you a chance to connect with a wide variety of professionals in just under an hour. It’s networking without the awkwardness—and with all the opportunity.

  Bring your (1) business cards, (2) your elevator pitch, and (3) your curiosity. This is networking made simple, structured, and genuinely valuable.
