Recently, our Chicago River Oaks campus hosted a Career Services week, with almost 20 companies on-site for the event. Students got an opportunity to pick from the “clothes closet” in preparation, and were encouraged to present themselves professionally during the event. Over the course of the week, several guest speakers presented on a variety of topics, ranging from managing personal finances to branding yourself in a down economy.
As special guest, Menards, a well-known home improvement chain, sent representatives from its Wisconsin corporate office to meet with candidates for their “management in training” program. Menards interviewed several graduates, as well as current students from the Business and Construction Management programs for positions.
Congratulations to the entire Chicago River Oaks Career Services and Admissions staff for all of their hard work putting the week together and for continuing to create exciting opportunities for our students to further develop their professional skills.
