Career Expo

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step" - Lao Tzu

On May 6, 2008, hundreds of students, job seekers and career explorers gathered at the Dave DuVall Pavilion on the Mount Vernon campus to check out career and job possibilities with up to 100 local employers. The theme of this event was "Mapping Your Future" and spoke to the necessary planning and tracking of one's progress as they make their way along a career pathway.

Also offered on this day was a series of workshops including an employer panel, résumé writing tips, job interview success and a presentation/panel that addressed "Encore Careers" for those seeking to postpone retirement and keep their hand in the game. We also offered a résumé class in Spanish. 

Make plans now to attend next year's Career Expo that will be open to students as well as the general public. Save the date on your calendar for May 5, 2009!
