DESCRIPTION:In blockchain\, proof of work shows that real effort was done. 
 In your career\, open source is your proof of work: a public\, verifiable 
 record of how you solve problems\, respond to code review and collaborate 
 with others.\n\nThat record matters more than ever. AI can now write code 
 and generate pull requests\, so what makes a developer worth hiring\, prom
 oting or trusting with critical systems? And in Web3\, where many teams ar
 e distributed and hiring is global\, contributions often matter more than 
 a CV.\n\nThis panel brings together maintainers\, contributors and people 
 who hire engineers to share real stories and practical advice:\n\n- **What
  employers look for now:** which skills have gained value\, and which have
  lost it.\n\n- **Standing out:** building a visible track record without g
 reen-square farming or AI-generated PRs.\n\n- **Using AI well:** making it
  your advantage rather than a replacement for understanding.\n\n- **Where 
 open source leads:** paths into Web3 and decentralized teams\, and growing
  from contributor to maintainer and leader.

DESCRIPTION:We close the day by looking back at what was built\, shared and
  started. That includes highlights from the talks\, pull requests opened i
 n the workshop room\, and new connections between the open source and dece
 ntralized technology communities. The most important part of the day\, tho
 ugh\, starts after it ends. We'll show you how to keep going: where to fin
 d beginner-friendly issues\, how to stay in touch with mentors and maintai
 ners\, and how to join upcoming FOSSASIA events\, including FOSSASIA Summi
 t 2027. We'll finish with thanks to our speakers\, volunteers and partners
 \, followed by a group photo. Don't leave without being in it.
