The Orlando, Florida Diversity Job Expo is gearing up for tomorrow, Friday May 28th (check out www.diversityjobsusa.com for additional details). This free career connection event will be held between 11:00 am to 3:00 pm at the Double Tree Resort Hotel (10100 International Drive), have you penciled the date and time in your calendar?
Given the fact most jobs do not go through the advertised market, any opportunity to network could pay some serious dividends. A quick listing of several companies (not all inclusive) attending the job expo are:
* AFLAC * Mountain State University
* Becon TV * Macy’s
* MetroPC * Orlando Urban League
* FBI * Natha Communications Inc.
In addition to the many companies attending, several exhibitors will be present, including WorkForce Central Florida (on this note, for those who were unable to attend Launch 2.0, it was a most successful event and look forward to future opportunities to meet) and I will also be at this event.
For those attending the Florida Diversity Job Expo, come by my table (Education Career Services) and I’ll be glad to go over your career management material and/or respond to your career questions. I will also bring several copies of my career management books and support guidebooks for your review.
Before I close this quick note, this is a professional event so follow these guidelines:
* Business attire is required for admittance (hey, if I gotta wear slacks and a tie, so do you–for the fellas–so get over it)
* Bring your resume as it is also required
* Pre-register for this job expo—like NOW
Look forward to meeting you,
