professionals. Highlighting the company’s presence at the event,

advancements in artificial intelligence, mixed reality and
illustrate the culture transformation at Microsoft. Topics and
speakers include:
The World Is Your Platform
Diego Rejtman, Senior Director of Microsoft Global
University Recruiting, will keynote the Hispanicize U
program. In this inspiring session, he will express how to use the
company you work for, or choose to work for in the future, as a
platform to pursue your passions. This is rooted in his
unconventional journey at Microsoft, where, as a Latino immigrant,
he started his career as an engineer and eventually transitioned to
HR to lead university recruiting, where he discovered his passion
for culture.
