🥳Happy FriYAY, everyone!🥳 I had the privilege of attending Northwood University’s 2024 Spring Employment Fair yesterday! Traveling in Michigan during the winter can always be hit or miss with weather and I was lucky enough to be hit by a snow storm on my drive up😂 Although this delayed me from starting on time at the fair, there was still a great turn out from the students! A common theme within the students I spoke with yesterday was that most were student-athletes. I am always looking for the soft skills that college students learn in the classroom…group project collaboration, self accountability to study for a test, critical thinking, and strategic thinking…etc. But have you considered how hiring student athletes specifically might be a great plus to your organization? I found a great article on LinkedIn that I’ll link below. The author mentions 10 reasons on why you should take a second look at a student-athlete applicants: 1. Mental toughness 2. Adaptability 3. Teamwork 4. Work ethic 5. Handles pressure 6. Coachable 7. Competitor 8. Understands failure 9. Goal setters 10. Big picture and the details Through my own experience with focusing on early talent (0-3 years post undergrad) hiring the last two years for Bish's RV, Inc., I can vouch that these qualities DO make you stand out pre and post hire. If you fall in this category, let’s have a chat!

Thank you very much Women's Agenda for this beautiful piece. Our iSTEM Co. Careers fair last year attracted over 250 attendees with 20 companies including Telstra, Westpac, CSL, Metro Trains Melbourne, Suburban Rail Loop Authority Arup and more. We are very excited for the opportunity to do this again this year in collaboration with the ACS (Australian Computer Society). In Australia, women make up 36% of University STEM enrolments but only 15% of STEM-Qualified occupations. Employment, Retention and Leadership are the biggest barriers to the acceleration of progress for women in STEM. And while one person can't fix it all, we can each play a role in addressing this problem. You can contribute by sharing this post, telling women in your network about this amazing opportunity or sponsoring the event as a business. Read Maedeh Nadimi's story here and see the impact of the work we are doing at iSTEM Co. Maedeh is not alone. With a PhD in Chemical Engineering-In view, she struggled to find work in the industry. Thanks to open minded businesses like South East Water David Bergmann that decided to take a chance and create an amazing opportunity. Today, Maedeh has progressed and has been with the company for two years and continuing with the support of our Mentoring program. So, if you are a woman with STEM qualification looking for the next career opportunity, then take advantage of this life changing opportunity and attend our iSTEM Co. Careers fair. We have 50% using the code NFP50.

Did you know? 68% of LGBTQIA+ people receive discrimination at the workplace. And this increases to 80% for people with disabilities. Guess what... I'm both. 😅 Thankfully, we now have more employers stepping up to explore ways to make their investments in people more diverse and inclusive. Over 30 of these companies will be at the Inclusive Careers Fair 2024, including Google, NBCUniversal, Citi, Dyson, Standard Chartered, J.P. Morgan and more. I'll also be speaking on the event's panel discussing about Diversity - The Spice of Life. Interested to network with other like-minded champions of inclusion, or maybe even find a job?
