Check out the career menu designed to help you bridge your transition from college to the workplace. It’s never too early to begin planning. In fact, the earlier you start planning for you first job, the better it will be for you. In 2010, of the 21 students attending one of our events from Jackson State University, 17 were offered jobs on the spot!
Starters: Inspiration Ever wondered about the kids who set the grade curve in your calculus class? We’ve asked them to share their stories with you. Their candor about their triumphs and even failures before success is a great pick-me-up that sets the tone for your experience at the conference.
Venues:
Soup & Salad: Networking and Mentors It is often said, “It’s not what you know, it’s whom you know.” That is only partly true; you do need to know something, but whom you know is also very important. That’s why, when you attend one of our events, you have access to professionals ranging in experience from the entry level to the executive ranks. And we encourage you to network with them, and to develop mentorship relationships.

Dessert: Role Models We give you a glimpse into what the working world is like through the stories of men and women who have been in your place, in some cases only a few years ago. The accomplishments of these individuals and their stories are tools that will bring clarity to your goals, inspire you to complete your studies and remain beacons for success for years to come.
