Student Employment Fair Report

No matter, my experience at the March 2 Career Fair began at 8:00AM that day. I, like several other students, had volunteered to help before and after the Career Fair. Personally, I thought it would be a great opportunity to network with the companies and build my networking skills. So once they started to arrive I took every chance I could to have a conversation with them as I helped bring their stuff into the building and to their table. I believe by volunteering I got an extra benefit that many other students were not able to receive.

Although Career Fair isn’t a new thing for me, but it was the first time I actually attend it. Before going to the Career Fair, I checked my mail and clicked the link of the Career Fair website provided by CoB Newsletter. Internet provides a great platform for research. First, I looked up the attached form of the companies that are coming. The site was very organized and provided different information sheet for students with different majors. I downloaded the Business Major version and glanced through the page. Then I narrowed down the lists by crossing the companies that requires specific majors. Due to different cultural background, I couldn’t tell some well-known companies by name. So I picked several companies that I’ve already heard of. I then googled the companies, and took a look at their websites. In addition, I went to see reviews and news about those companies. I also tried to search them in Chinese search engine to see their reputations through an international view. After that, I went to Recruit-A-Duke looking for information they provided about the positions they are offering. I evaluate them by the positions they offer, and are they providing internships during the summer. Last, I weigh them by how interesting the jobs are.

On the other hand, you have external recruiting which is the process of engaging individuals from the labor market outside of the firm to apply for a job (Lussier and Hendon, 172). Some examples of external recruiting would be using advertisements in newspapers, online job websites, career fairs, and referrals from current employees that would help fulfill any open positions (Applegate). If a company is going to promote themselves at a career fair it is important that they prepare in advance. The company must advertise! As obvious as this may seem, some companies do not advertise because they mainly rely on word of mouth. Some good advertising techniques would be to post flyers around local campuses, add a section in the newspaper, advertise on the radio, and use social media platforms. The company could also work with universities to send out an email blast to all of the students letting them know about the career fair so that it draws more potential employees in (“Effective Career Fair Recruiting”). Being a student at Lewis University, lately I have been seeing signs around campus about a career

I’m writing to you, in hopes to appeal my academic dismissal of the nursing program at Adelphi University. I am aware that my grades are lower than required, and I take full responsibility for being on academic probation. I was surprised when I got the news that I have been dismissed from the nursing program because I did not receive any form of notification of dismissal from the University earlier. I was informed by my guidance counselor prior to the start of spring semester that I would say in the program as long as I did not obtain a lower GPA than I had. As a result of my GPA increasing I was surprised to receive the news of my dismissal. Despite this I believe that I did not handle my situation correctly and should have maintained sufficient grades to avoid academic probation. As stated before I recognize and

Job fairs that focus on medical professions, technical support, or development are great opportunities for the HRM or a representative to be present and expose potential candidates to VeriType’s career opportunities.

Please consider my qualifications for the Student Services Assistant position. I hold over eight years of experience working in a variety of applicable roles including graduate and undergraduate student development, training, and health, safety, and wellness programing. The experience I have gained over the course of this time has allowed me to retain a large and ever increasing scope of knowledge of technical assistance methodologies and skills to tackle complex problems and exceed organizational goals.

The last engagement activity I would like to highlight is the Career Fair. I think so far the Career Fair is one of the most important events I have participated in. At this fair, students can talk with businesses and companies to discuss potential job opportunities and internships. The week leading up to this event, I didn’t think there would be much to offer since I’m just an Agriculture Education major. Later that week, some speakers from Land O’ Lakes spoke in one of my classes to inform us on what their business is all about and the job opportunities they have to offer. This really sparked my interest to at least talk to them at the career fair. Also, one of my friends talked to me about the new Agriculture Education internship at Riverview this summer. I did some research on this job opportunity and it is definitely something I’m interested in. If I did not attend the Career Fair and talk to the people I did, I probably would

My involvement in the FFA has given me many opportunities for service including being involved in the Farm Bureau's Farm Field Days in Utah County at Harward Farms where the local FFA chapters help teach second graders about agriculture. At Snow College with the Agriculture Club that hosts the FFA Field, club members help FFA Advisors with directing a mock Career Development Events contest for students. For my Human Development and Into to Education classes I helped students in a Sixth Grade class at Mt. Pleasant Elementary with Math and Science questions they had during class time.

I selected to contact the City of Brownsville Human Resource Department (HR) in order to determine the degree or extent of the Information Communication Technology (ICT) is utilized within the department. I spoke to Josh Perez the Assisted Human Resources Director. I have determined that the City of Brownsville Human Resource Department highly relies on operational, informational and relational aspects to better serve the community and the employees. The Operational portion was implemented to improve efficiency, increase productive, create and implemented E-filing record keeping, reduce cost, decrease paperwork and simplify the day-to-day clerical duties. The Informational portion was implemented and has proven to improve the quality of services offered by the Human Resource Department, it allows HR to post and receive applicant information in a faster matter, the response time has improved, and increase the HR departments hiring process. This would also allow for employees and current applicants to

On January 26, I had the opportunity to attend The Major Fair, an event in which the academic departments of FSU showcased their programs and gave information about various majors. Originally, I believed that I would not benefit from attending this event, but my perspective has changed. Although attending this event was mandatory for all students who enrolled in Freshman Seminar 2, The Major Fair allowed me to gain insight into the many majors and minors offered at this university. By the time I left the event, I received information that related to my intended major, which is chemistry, and the other programs that I found interesting and beneficial, which are the honors program and the 3+2 dual program.

The Career Services Center offers services on resume writing, which gives WVU students the advantage/benefit of utilizing the most up-to-date knowledge on what and how to write a resume. Not only do students do mock interviews with this office, but Career Services Center has career fairs. The career fairs bring in employers with vacant positions or internships. These potential employment opportunities allow students to hand a potential employer a resume and talk about or do an on-the-spot job interview. Sometimes students are hired right on-the-spot for

I attended the shocker resource fair, which represented all the different groups and resources offered at WSU. The fair took place in the RSC east courtyard. The people I spoke to were leaders or members of the groups that were offering resources. Each table had a group of people (some consisting of students) that were offering information about their group. The event was called the shocker resource fair, but each group had their name printed on signs so you could pick which one you wanted to learn more about. Student Involvement hosted the resource fair that took place on August 19th from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. I chose to attend this event because I had a break between classes and I wanted to do something that wouldn’t take too much time. I

In conclusion, my attendance to this career fair was about what I expected given the fact I didn't think very many businesses would be offering internships to aspiring physician's assistants. One thing I wish the Business and Technology career fair had was hospitals or more medical related opportunities. Outside that fact, I would say my overall experience at the fair was a positive
