So many career options and skill sets needed in the food industry!

I am 3 months into becoming a recruiter for the CONHS at AUM, and in my recruiting trips I have had the same question consistently asked for me to answer: "Why should I choose your school over [insert institution]? Am I not getting the same degree?" My favorite restaurant is a Chinese restaurant that is 5 minutes from where I live. One day, a friend of mine claims that this OTHER Chinese restaurant is even better. Do I take their word for it and just believe them? Do I stubbornly stay stuck in my ways and argue that MY favorite restaurant is better? How do I know which one is better? You go and try it for yourself. What I bring to a recruiting event (pamphlets, souvenirs, etc.) is only the front cover of the book for the institution I work for. It may look the same as University A or B State University or C Technical College, but you won't truly know the difference unless you come and look at it for yourself. That is why I always encourage everyone I talk to that is interested to come see our college. When you take a tour of our building, I show you everything you will be getting. You will get to see our classrooms and experience some of the classes happening at that time, you will get to see our work areas that students get to practice and make permanent to translate to their careers once they have graduated, you'll meet professors and students who can tell you about their experience here, and so much more. But, unless you come and see it for yourself, you will never know. The degree may have the same name on the diploma, but the experience and education you get from choosing my college is unlike any other. Turns out, my friend's restaurant is REALLY good and has some items that MY favorite restaurant doesn't that are pretty good. I wouldn't have known that unless I went and saw it for myself.

What does Grassroots Grocery do during the week when we're not hosting our Saturday Produce Party? One major focus is our commitment to nurturing the future through regular produce deliveries to middle and high schools in Upper Manhattan and the Bronx. A prime example of this commitment is our partnership with New Directions Secondary School, initiated by a committed school social worker, Jolyon Davis, LMSW,SIFI, who sought out resources for his students. Today marked a particularly special moment, bringing me back to my educational roots in the Bronx. This time, invited by Jolyon not for a produce delivery but to share insights from my career journey alongside a diverse group of professionals at the NDSS career fair. Speaking at this event was an opportunity to demonstrate the synergy between our weekday school deliveries and our vision for a healthier, empowered future for young minds. I hope that today I helped some students envision a future as rich and diverse as the produce we deliver. A heartfelt thank you to Jolyon for integrating Grassroots Grocery into the fabric of NDSS, and a shout-out to all the other professionals today for enriching the career fair with their insights and experiences. As Grassroots Grocery continues to bridge the gap between food access and education, every delivery, conversation, and partnership, especially ones like with NDSS, underscores our belief in the transformative power of community engagement. Together, we're not just feeding families; we're planting seeds of potential in the next generation. Let's keep building those bridges, one produce delivery and career fair at a time. #CommunityImpact #EmpoweringYouth #FutureLeaders #FoodJustice #BuildingBridges

A few clients, unhappy in their SE job, told me they were planning to tell their manager - to be fair. Hmmm. There are some times when that’s a good idea. Most of the time you’re telling your manager you’re not committed to your job. You’re not engaged. And he can’t count on you. AND - what’s the chance your manager will tell you he’s thinking of letting you go? Examine why you would give this heads up. If it’s really in the hope of getting something from your manager, do it better! Ask for what you want. If you give fair notice and do your job well while you look around, that’s the kind of fair that will benefit both you and your manager.

Job Hunting at the Sindh HEC Career Fair!🚀 Today, I hit the ground running at the Sindh HEC career fair, meeting with representatives from a wide range of organizations! As a food technologist, I naturally gravitated towards some companies that caught my interest💡. One such company was Pakistan Beverage Limited (PBL) PepsiCo Pakistan. Despite being an Israeli-owned firm, I was eager to connect with their team. However, my conversation with the HR team left me a bit surprised‼️. They informed me that PBL doesn't hire food technologists because they focus on beverages, not food. Apparently, only microbiologists are considered for their roles. This was quite shocking, considering the intricate science behind beverage development, even if the base ingredient is water💧. Here's the thing: PBL itself has a history of hiring food technologist interns for their ROSHAN KAL program. So, the lack of awareness from the HR regarding their own company's practices was a bit concerning. Just a heads up for any fellow food technologists out there targeting PBL! While they may not actively recruit for our specific field currently, their past programs suggest potential opportunities😀. #SindhHEC #CareerFair #FoodScience #Pakistan #BeverageIndustry #JobHunting #RoshanKalProgram
