The museum district website claims 150 museums and cultural institutions in Greater Houston and that number is almost certainly low.
For professional sports, there's men's soccer, women's soccer, football (two of them, if XFL manages to start back up), baseball, basketball, rugby, and probably more sports I'm forgetting.
There's dozens of colleges and universities that host events ranging from soon-to-be Big XII sports to public lectures. Oh, also, you could like, take a class at one, I guess.
There's SFA, Brazos Bend, Galveston, and Sheldon Lake State Parks within close driving distance, as well Sam Houston National Forest and countless smaller green spaces run by other groups.
The theater district alone includes five theaters including pop music, ballet, opera, symphony, musicals, and plays, to say nothing of the smaller theaters in town such as the George Theater, Ensemble Theater, and MATCH.

Mock Interview & Resume Review Workshop

Mock Interview & Resume Review Workshop

Background

September 2016, I tweeted that I'd volunteer time to help a few people at DerbyCon who struggle with anxiety during interviews. I'd just come off of a 2 week hiring sprint and saw a lot of candidates with great technical skills who failed miserably when it came to answering "soft" questions. I thought spending a couple of hours with struggling folks at DerbyCon would be a simple way to give back to the community that's given me so much.

Response was overwhelming and it became pretty clear that the community needed more help than I would be able to give in a few short hours. I published 2 Google forms - One for volunteers to help and the other for participants. Somewhere along the way, DerbyCon organizers caught wind of the project and generously offered a room to conduct mock interviews and resume reviews. Just like that, a workshop was born.

I'm setting up this Gist with the hope that sharing my format, forms, guidelines, and lessons learned will in
