Career fair brings in more than 130 job seekers
Columbia College of Missouri-Hancock Field
On Wednesday,
April 10, Columbia College of Missouri-Hancock Field hosted its first career fair.
Students and community members alike who sought current and future
career opportunities took interest in the event, and were able to meet with
various professionals that work in their field of study. In preparing for the
event, we reached out to CNY Works for advertising assistance to attract those
seeking employment outside of our student base. CNY Works helped spread the word a month prior to the fair.
Vendor booths
were spread throughout the halls and lounge on campus, as attendees
sat at empty tables to fill out applications and take notes. Vendors included Prudential Financial, BNY Mellon, Syracuse Police Department, Fuccillo
Automotive Group, AXA Equitable and our own 174th Attack Wing. Vendors were impressed by our campus and the effort put into making
the event comfortable and worthwhile - without charge. The
event not only helped our local community explore professional interests, but
it also shed a positive light on our college and sparked interest in learning
more about our programs.
Presenting
challenges and providing our students with adequate resources only further
encourages them to Go for Greater in both the professional world and in
life. Events such as a well-organized career fair only make Hancock Field a
greater place to do so. A special thanks to the Hancock Field staff, and CNY
Works for making the event a success.
