How to Work a Job Fair and Make a Lasting Impression
Never been to a job fair and don’t know how to network with employers? Or maybe you’ve attended job fairs before and come away disappointed? This workshop can help. Together, we’ll develop a targeted 30-second commercial to introduce yourself, and discuss how to establish rapport and talk with employers in an unstructured job fair setting.
- Tues., March 18, 2008: 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 A.M.
- Thurs., March 20, 2008: 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
These workshops will be held at the Urban League: 1710 Paseo, Kansas City
Registration is required: call 816-471-0550 or email receptionist@ulkc.org
