Like my dad would start off when he was going to say something potentially offensive..."how do I saaay..." If you or your company are not recruiting at the #NSBE Convention...then, respectfully, what are you doing?!? 18,000+ attendees were at #NSBE50...representing ALL of the Engineering disciplines and science and technology fields ranging from machine learning and medical to cyber, materials, and information systems. MANY of the attendees had law degrees or MBAs reflecting the vast diversity in thought and educational background. MANY of the attendees were Researchers...some had Military experience...some already had secret clearances...and some were looking for their very first opportunity! There were over 1,000 Pre-College Initive (PCI)/NSBE, Jr. attendees and more than a handful who are already doing research or have started their own business. There was a separate Graduate School Conference and multiple Special Interest Groups (SIGs) ranging from Transportation to Aerospace and more. But MOST OF ALL you had a CommUNITY of LEADERS who fought and scrapped to get themselves and their chapters to the convention. In my informal statistical study over nearly 30 years of NSBE membership I can state with a fairly wide confidence interval that no other student or professional organization has as much of a role in the day-to-day activities of the chapters as NSBE student leaders! Sure, they have an advisor, but the onus is ON the student leaders to run, manage, and plan in both the long and short-term. Then...these STUDENT leaders become STUDENT Regional Leaders...then STUDENT National Leaders...or Conference or Convention Planning Chairs. What senior or graduate student do you know chaired a 30,000+ member organization or managed a $60,000+ budget planning a regional conference before they finally returned the keys to their dorm room? And just for the supplemental cherry on top, NSBE Professionals and the phenomenal World Headquarters (WHQ) Staff ensure consistency and provide counsel while adroitly add the extra 'umph' when required. You might not need an engineer, but you should want a NSBE engineer in your organization. They make excellent staff, project managers, researchers, and problem solvers. NSBE is huge on organization, legacy, and culture. Maybe you don't have it in your budget for the biggest booth, but at least give your best effort for a few years and send your best people to reflect your corporation. So, if you're not recruiting at NSBE Conventions, I would suggest you ask your #HR or #recruiting staff..."why"? #STEM #NSBEGOLD #career #engineer #CareerFair #recruiter #hiring #interview #JobSeeker #SummerIntern #CooperativeEducation #science #technology #ComputerScience #AI #SWE #Cyber #EngineeringEducation #GradSchool #MedicalSchool #MBA #LawSchool #PatentLaw #DoD #Military #CivilianCareers #FederalEmployment #Talent National Society of Black Engineers NSBE Professionals | National Society of Black Engineers

Here's everything I'd do at a career fair if I 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗱 an internship: I remember my first career fair. 🎓 I was wandering from booth to booth, unsure who to talk to or what to say. It’s overwhelming, right? 😥 But that changed for me when I learned how to approach career fairs with a plan. Instead of feeling lost, I walked in prepared, had meaningful conversations, and ended up landing an internship that all started with an interview at a career fair. If you’re ready to turn those awkward moments into real opportunities, check out the video I made this week to teach you how to maximize your time at the career fair. 🎯 P.S. I am posting this today because I know Elon University has a career fair on Tuesday - I hope my Elon connections attend, and LMK if you have any last-minute questions :) #careerfair #internshipfair #studentadvice #financeinternship #businessinternship

Great way for companies to identify their next great superstars.

Discoveries at Algonquin’s ICT Career Fair: Insightful Moments by the Nokia Stand Algonquin College transformed into a tech hub today with its ICT career fair, uniting eight trailblazing companies with students passionate about technology's future. As I explored the event, I found myself drawn to the buzz at the Nokia booth. There, Linda Krebs led a series of insightful Q&A sessions. Even as an observer, the answers provided to my peers' questions struck a chord. Linda’s emphasis on creating a standout CV through problem-solving projects resonated with me, stressing that our contributions need not be grandiose to be meaningful. This dialogue sparked reflection on my recent project, the "Live Orbital Tracker," a web app that monitors the ISS's journey across the sky. It's been a personal challenge and a testament to the power of learning through doing. With Linda’s advice in mind, I’m inspired to take it further. Enriching the app with educational outreach or interactive elements could be just the kind of distinctive work that sets one apart. Heartfelt thanks to Linda Krebs for sharing such valuable perspectives, and appreciation to all the participating companies. A special nod to BlackBerry QNX and Algonquin College of Applied Arts and Technology for making this enriching experience possible. It’s moments like these that remind us: innovation starts with a spark of curiosity and a willingness to listen. #AlgonquinCollege #ICTCareerFair #Nokia #Technology #Innovation #CareerDevelopment #LiveOrbitalTracker

Big shout out to Lester Fernandes for his work in putting together our first ever Green Careers Fair! Great turnout, great speakers & great exhibitors! Some of you may think that, as an enterprise agency, BEC running a careers fair is a bit odd but to us it totally makes sense. At the 'obvious' level, as we run a green skills focused course alongside Coventry College, we are adding value by making sure that there are clear opportunities presented at the end of the course which this event has helped enabled. However, it runs a little deeper.... The reason BEC exists in the first place is we are here to empower those individuals who want to make a difference in their world to have the skills, knowledge and opportunities to do exactly that. With a lot of what we do it is about entrepreneurs looking to take on problems but this is actually the same for the individuals we've been supporting through the green skills work. Those looking to go into a career in sustainability see the emergency we face and are not prepared to stand by and watch. They want to tackle it head on and work towards a greener future. They are problem solvers, creative thinkers and innovators. They learn the power of collaboration and they are looking to get the most out of the resources we have at hand - minimising waste. Kind of sounds like something very entrepreneurial right? Therefore, this work sits hand in hand with who we are as an organisation & community. Plenty going on behind the scenes to keep our foot down on the accelerator of BEC's work in Sustainability! Watch this space...

Diversification is key to success on any level.
