We are so excited for this panel too: "Recruiters & Hiring Managers"! Of our 5 panels of the day, this is the panel that all 100 delegates attend live, as it is the perfect transition from our two Professional Development Workshops in the morning, to our 5x Panels across 5x different industries in the afternoon! Our attending students will get to hear answers to questions like - "What are some common pitfalls that people make while interviewing?" & - "What are some of the things that candidates can do to help them stand out during the hiring process?" The feedback from last year was also incredible, so we have been so fortunate to have been able to get the band back together: Brien Convery, Founder, Convery & Company Mary Papagiannis, Senior Manager, Talent, at Vena Solutions Ainsley Foubister, CHRP, People Business Partner, at StackAdapt (who is also our incredible lead partner for this event!) Thank you Brien, Mary, and Ainsley for being so generous with your time, expertise, and your advice once again! We appreciate you all so much. Our Virtual Career Conference is a free, one-day virtual event for 100 university and college students across Canada facing one or more barriers in the workforce, to provide professional skill development, real-world education from diverse industry professionals, and opportunities for students to network with companies they might not otherwise have the chance to! The day includes breakfast, lunch, two professional development workshops led by our team, globally recognized Career Strategy Coach & Former Fortune 500 Senior Director Tiffany Uman, and the amazing folks at Deloitte; 5x incredible educational and informative panels such as this one, and virtual meet-and-greet sessions with recruiters at amazing companies, providing students with a chance to make connections to hopefully lead to future job opportunities! Please share with any university or college student (or professor) you think could be interested in attending. The application link is below; while the deadline for our 100 conference spot kits has passed, we are still accepting last minute students who wish to attend this week! https://lnkd.in/gXbwCj9n #virtualevent #careerconference #universitylife #collegelife #virtualcareerconference #recruiting #hiring #getrealmovement

Transforming negatives into positives! 🌩 🌞 Recently, I encountered a challenge in my professional journey... After investing considerable effort in recruiting for an employer and coordinating interviews, I received news that their current budget constraints meant they couldn't proceed with hiring an apprentice at this time. These things happen and often there is nothing that can be done. Despite this disappointment, the feedback on my recruitment efforts was incredibly positive. I was touched when two contacts from the company personally reached out to apologise for the situation. Their recognition of my dedication and communication during the process meant a lot. This experience taught me a valuable lesson about resilience and building relationships. Instead of dwelling on the setback, I focused on nurturing the connections I had made. As a result, we have established a strong foundation for future collaborations, leaving both sides feeling satisfied and optimistic. In the end, it's not just about the immediate outcome but also about the relationships we build along the way. This encounter reaffirmed my belief that every setback is an opportunity to learn and grow, and that fostering positive relationships is key to long-term success in any endeavour. #recruitment #personaldevelopment #relationshipbuilding #positivity
