MHC Career Day
Tuesday, October 23
Centennial Hall and B-wing Hallway
10 a.m. - 3 p.m.

Career information and opportunities abound on Tuesday, October 23 when we host Career Day 2012. With more than 60 exhibitors already registered to participate, students can:
  • Discover the types of careers available with their educational training
  • Get a head start on their competition in securing a summer job, practicum placement, internship, or a career position
  • Find out what the job market is currently like in their industry
  • Meet potential employers and contacts in their field of study
  • Hone their networking skills
  • Pick up some SWAG, popcorn, and enter to win some PHENOMENAL prizes
Each year we have students who walk away with job offers for summer opportunities or career positions. But this event is not just for students who are currently completing their programs and will be entering the job market next semester…..the main purpose of Career Day is for ALL students to gather information and explore opportunities, to “think outside the box” in terms of what they can do with their education, and to make some valuable career connections for when they are ready to begin work.

All faculty who bring down their classes, or refer their students to attend, will be entered to win a special prize for faculty only. In the past, faculty have won gift cards, Kobo E-readers, GPS systems, IPODS, and Medalta Pottery to name a few………don’t miss out on this year’s prizes!

For more information, please contact Shelly Drefs at ext. 2208 or sdrefs@mhc.ab.ca.
