CDC International Career Forum

As part of WorldFest 2010, the Career Development Center is hosting their annual International Career Forum. This year's theme is "The Career Buffet: Unique Opportunities in Food Industries”
The forum is Wednesday, April 28th, from 10am to 2pm in TUC Great Hall. You can RSVP to the event by email to montiej@ucmail.uc.edu.

From the CDC:
Sponsored by the UC Career Development Center (CDC), the ICF is part of the week-long Worldfest, a UC Just Community initiative. Its purpose is to raise students’ awareness of the increasing impact of globalization on their job search and entry into the workforce. The ICF includes discussions about global job & market trends, diversity and cross-cultural competency.
Now, because of the high unemployment rate nationally (10.6%) and internationally (5.2-9.7%), the ICF’s program mission is be:
· To inspire and enhance students’ self-efficacy to compete for jobs in a global economy;
· To encourage students to expand their job search and consider a wider array of career opportunities.
· To achieve these goals, our focus will be on the multi-billion dollar Food and Supply Chain Industries, where the a large number of students would not think to look for future employment. We will promote this program to students in business, engineering, sciences, industrial design and several other majors.
