Are You Ready for the Workforce?

BY: Taniya Frazier

Auburn University Montgomery Career Development Center is having a career fair on April 3, 2019. The fair will begin at 11:00 a.m. in Taylor Center 230. The fair is only for students and alumni. The attire is professional dress code and it is mandatory. In order to attend, you must have your Warhawk ID. The career fair will offer students help with resume building, finding jobs and giving out tips about the workforce. There will be a couple of different companies and organizations seeking fresh workers or possible interns.

The Career Development Center help students get ready for a job in their field. Students can schedule an appointment or walk in to receive assistance. The staff is ready and willing to find students internships or jobs. They offer advice for which career path to take.

I attended the last career fair held by the Career Development Center. The fair was eventful and they had a diverse group of companies that came to showcase what they offered. I was able to see what companies were hiring in the surrounding areas. I received information on a possible interview opportunity. I followed up on the information and received a job that I currently enjoy. Go out to the career fair and take a step in the right direction for your career.
