Rakesh will talk about different careers in WordPress, targeting at beginners and freshers who want to make a career around WordPress but are not sure how to get started.

People who are not into coding and design but are slightly technical can also make a huge career in WordPress. Rakesh hopes his session will inspire and guide people who want to get started with WordPress.
