About Connect
- Connect Career Expo is your first step to connecting with a future career. Meet employers, ask questions, find out what they do and drink some free coffee.
Work or Fun?
- They say if you do what you love, you never work a day in your life. It may take time to locate that perfect career, but CONNECT can definitely get you on the right path.
Money, Money, Money
- Don't be tricked by a nice sounding large salary. Remember: bills, rent, house payment, car payment, gas/car expenses, food to cook, food to eat out, clothes expenses, money to save, money for summer vacations, etc...
- BUDGET: Get to know one, you may not like it at first, but it is the foundation for a solid financial future.
Resumes
- Your Profile has a location to paste in a link to your resume. You can get a free Dropbox or Google account to upload files to so you can share them with prospective employers
- Dropbox.com
- Google Drive
First Impressions
- First impressions matter.
- When you are talking to a potential employer, the way you present yourself can speak a lot more than the actual words coming out of your mouth.
- Dress to impress. Dress for the job.
- What not to wear to a job interview: pajamas, dirty clothes, superhero costume, straight jacket, shorts, flip flops, etc...
FREE JOBS!
- Sort of...MADE YOU LOOK.
- The fact that you clicked that shows that you WANT a job. That's the first step. Desire. Step two? Create your user and come to CONNECT 2018.

Why?

Because the sun came up today. (Do you really need a reason why?) Because you have been trying to find a job. Because you may not like the job you have now. Because you have always wanted to find a career to fall in love with. Because you are about to graduate and you really aren't sure what you're going to do so you need a place to come and get some ideas. Because.
