What
FireLake Sessions are your chance for a totally private, 20-minute, one-on-one conversation with Microsoft developers & PMs, speakers, or career guides; held in cozy booths in the back of FireLake. Quieter and more comfortable than the tents of years past. (Bringing a teammate? That works too.)
Got a question you didn't want to ask in front of a crowd? This is your moment. Speakers are scheduled based on session popularity, so the people you most want to talk to will be there.
Snacks, sodas, and maybe a beer are on us while you chat.
Where
FireLake Sessions are in the back of FireLake this year (Microsoft, Speakers, and Career). If you're in the Lakes Foyer head towards the rest rooms, then enter the back of FireLake. You'll see Wally standing there.
These sessions will run at the same time as other sessions. Feel free to leave your current session for 20 minutes and pop back in when done; speakers won't be offended by your walking out. They know to expect it.
How
FireLake Sessions cannot be booked in sched.com directly!
Find Wally to book your session. You are likely to spot him at the registration desk or over by the FireLake.
Sessions will be published Sunday (we wait to help you find normal sessions first).
Wally will take walk-ups on a case-by-case basis throughout the week. Just ask if anything is currently open.
Limit: 1 session per attendee max per day (but again, if a booth is open when you walk-up, Wally can let you in).
