📢 Sharing for my network: The Dana Foundation Career Network in Neuroscience and Society is organizing a Virtual Career Fair, starting today! 🎯 From strategizing member engagement for organizations to mentoring peers, I've always sought ways to integrate my scientific insight with societal impact, so I’m eager to learn from thought leaders shaping the future of neuroscience and policy. 🧠 With my background in medical writing, clinical research, and community leadership, I’m particularly interested in exploring the intersections of neuroethics, public health, and policy. Looking forward to learning and networking! #neurosociety #neuroethics #publichealth #policy

❓ Has “Scan the QR Code” replaced “Go to the Website” as a career fair 'toxic practice'? Every year at this time, since it was first published in the August 2016 NACE Journal, I have posted a link [I'll drop in Comments] to this Op-Ed I wrote: “Career Fairs are NOT Dead”. Simply stated, although the technology has certainly evolved, the cause-and-effect of the career fair experience remains constant: if students get “blown off” [their term] by recruiters directing them to scan their resume to a QR code and/or to visit their website in lieu of a ‘genuine conversation’, that telegraphs disinterest in them – at best. 👉 Here’s how I concluded the 2016 Op-Ed: “What I find intriguing is that the more we introduce technology into the recruitment toolkit, the more value students place on the type of face-to-face interactions that occur at career fairs”.  It’s eight years later, and I wouldn’t change a word. 👈
