On June 16th, 2019, Δ’Ή½ΚΣΖ΅ hosted one of their bi-annual Career Fairs. This Career Fair marked one of the most successful recruiting events in the collegeβs history. With over 19 total employers present, Δ’Ή½ΚΣΖ΅ students were determined to leave a lasting impression as well as learn from the networking experiences. Students talked with companies such as ,, and many more. By the end of the day, at least five individuals who were enrolled in Δ’Ή½ΚΣΖ΅βs Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) were offered jobs!
Of the 19 total employers, 16 of them were new to Δ’Ή½ΚΣΖ΅. This expansion of employers was made possible due to the hard work of the Career Services Coordinator, Evan Kee. Evan reached out to multiple employers for months leading up to the event. Both the hiring companies and students in attendance were eager to build a networking connection. Some employers made offers on the spot, others conducted interviews and many encouraged Δ’Ή½ΚΣΖ΅ students to fill out the necessary applications to apply for their open positions. Δ’Ή½ΚΣΖ΅ even hosted traveling all the way from Alexandria, Virginia. CALIBRE was excited to have the chance to meet with trained auto mechanics.
Employers were thrilled with the turn out they received and were excited for the opportunity to meet so many skilled trades people. Many expressed interest in returning and plan to stay involved with Δ’Ή½ΚΣΖ΅βs future recruiting efforts.
