You know what’s worse than applying for jobs? Pretty much nothing. Thankfully, there’s a quick and convenient way to make all the best connections in the Texas Panhandle in one place. HPPR wants to thank Karl Kimsey, Employer Relations Coordinator at West Texas A&M University, for stopping by the station this week to tell folks about WT’s upcoming 2019 Fall Career EXPO. They’re expecting more than 100 employers to take part, and all are searching for candidates to fill internships for students (sophomores and above) as well as full-time positions that require a college degree. The Expo will take place Thursday, September 26 from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at the First United Bank Center (SE Russell Long Blvd & 4th Ave) in Canyon, TX.
Fun fact! Students who attend an Expo, on average, earn nearly $1,500 more in their first year?
If you’re an employer that would like to get a booth at the Expo, be sure to book your spot before September 12th to avoid any late fees. The deadline for booking a booth is September 19th.
If you’re a WT student interested in attending, be sure to contact Kark about getting your resume and cover letter polished, or getting some tips and practice with mock interviews.
Whether you’re an employer, a student, or a hopeful applicant, call Karl for more information at 806-651-2345, or drop him an email at wtcareer@wtamu.edu.
