Career And Networking Expo Set For All Rasmussen College Wisconsin Campus Locations
Local Businesses to Participate in Business Networking Events as Part of National Expo to Help Enhance Students' Career Search Success, Link Graduates with Local Job Opportunities
Green Bay, Wisc. (February 15, 2012) – Rasmussen College today announced that all three of its Wisconsin campus locations will take part in the College’s annual nationwide Winter Career and Networking Expo on Thursday, February 16. As part of the series of simultaneous workshops, webinars and networking events taking place at all 22 Rasmussen locations around the country, each location will host its own business networking events, which are offered at no cost to all students, alumni, community members and employers.
The Wisconsin campus events include business networking opportunities with potential local employers who will be on hand to meet with attendees and discuss job search tips and potential career opportunities. The time and location of each event, along with just a few of the participating local companies are as follows:
- 3-5:30 p.m. at the Appleton Campus, featuring UPS, Festival Foods and Northwestern Mutual;
- 3:30-5:30 p.m. at the Green Bay Campus, featuring Clarity Care, Oneida Airport Hotel Corp. and Trillium Staffing; and
- 3-6 p.m. at the Wausau Campus, featuring Aflac, Aurora Residential Alternatives and Primerica.
In keeping with the national 2012 Winter Career Expo theme of “Networking,” events at each campus will highlight the importance of effective networking in both finding and landing a position in today’s ultra-competitive job market. According to some estimates, between 75 and 80 percent of all jobs are found through networking and personal relationships, which is why building those connections is so important.
Workshops, webinars and other events as part of the expo will provide tips and suggestions for how to build and maintain a professional network that can lead to new career opportunities. In addition, local business partners at each Rasmussen campus will participate in panel discussions and other one-on-one events that give students a chance to start building that all-important network by meeting and talking with professionals in their area.
