Hola, qué gusto conocerte en este evento.
OH-lah keh GOOS-toh koh-noh-SER-teh en ES-teh eh-BEN-toh
Hi, nice to meet you at this event.
🇪🇸 At a career event in Spain, this is warm and natural if the atmosphere is friendly. In more formal settings, many people would switch to [encantado/a] or use [conocerle] instead of [conocerte].

byen-beh-NEE-doh

ee-gwahl-MEN-teh byen-beh-NEE-doh
Likewise, welcome.
¿A qué te dedicas?
ah keh teh deh-DEE-kahs
What do you do?
💬 [te dedicas] is how Spanish asks what someone does, literally more like "what do you dedicate yourself to?" The same pattern works with other people: [¿A qué se dedica?] for a more formal "What do you do?"
🇪🇸 This is a standard, polite networking question in Spain and sounds a bit more natural than a direct job-title question. With someone you've just met in a professional setting, many people would prefer the formal version [¿A qué se dedica?].
See breakdown →Trabajo.
trah-BAH-hoh
I work.
