Cue the music for "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year"! For those who, like me, have university recruiting in your blood, I offer up my annual posting of the link to an Op-Ed I wrote for the NACE Journal in 2016: "Career Fairs are NOT Dead". To the relevance of that article to today's career fair landscape, just as I wrote a year ago: "...[S]o much of what I observed and recommended in 2016 continues to resonate, and I would not be at all surprised to be writing a similar piece [in fall 2023] based on my upcoming research this semester. With as much that has changed since 2016..., students’ attitudes, and what they value, have not. Nor are career fairs dead." And here we are again, as the new semester is getting underway. This is an update I would add, however, as employers head into the 2023 career fair season, and it's a variation on my prior admonition to not tell students to GTW ['go to the website']: ✔ The use of QR codes offers a convenient tech link that can assist in connecting students to employers' websites, marketing materials and applications, among others - but much as 'GTW' became a running joke [and major dissatisfier!] a few years back, QR codes can be misused as well. Consider these two student quotes from fall 2022 SRG research: ❌ "They were just sitting at the table, and when I approached them they just told me to scan the QR code and submit my resume if I was interested"; and even worse - ❌"They just left a piece of paper with a QR code on the [career fair booth] table." As I concluded in 2016, "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". Genuine connections win the day - and will no doubt continue to do so this semester. So here's to a fall recruiting season of AUTHENTIC connections - and comfortable shoes! https://lnkd.in/eYngYNfb

Employers and recruiters - we have just opened up employer table registration for our next large-scale Vancouver Island University Career Fair, taking place on April 26, 2024! This event takes place two days after VIU exams end, when many students will be graduating or preparing to leave for summer break, and will be a great opportunity to promote any employment or internship opportunities with your organization to new graduates or students looking for summer work. Our previous career fair in September 2023 was a great success, drawing in over 650 VIU students and alumni from various programs during a 4-hour period. This event provided an excellent platform for over 60 different employers to connect with a diverse and talented pool of candidates. The fair not only offered meaningful networking opportunities but also received an employer satisfaction rating of 87%. In a post-event survey, 31 respondents (half of the employers that were in attendance) anticipated to hire 40-68+ students as a result of this event. To ensure that our department is able to continue organizing events of this magnitude, and to be able to continue providing the best level of career services that we can to VIU students and our employer partners, we will be charging $100/table for this upcoming career fair. In addition to being open to VIU students and alumni from all programs, I will also be opening this event up to members of the general public, and also inviting local high school students that will be graduating this year, to ensure that our employer partners have the opportunity to connect with as many potential candidates as possible, and that your organizations are more than satisfied with the success of this event. We only have 75 employer tables available for this 4-hour event, and I am anticipipating these spots to fill-up quickly (we have already two tables sell since email invites were sent 10 minutes ago), so please let me know if your organization is interested in participating and I will send you an Eventbrite link! (I am also organizing several other events in the next two months which will allow employers seeking to connect with specific student groups about internship and volunteer opportunities to do so - please let me know if you would be interested in any such event as well!)

'Picture yourself entering a grand ballroom at a hotel surrounded by well-dressed and earnest educators. Tables with signs listing school names and available job openings encircle you. You take a deep breath and review your list of potential schools. Then you begin “the dance” of meeting school leaders with the hope of snagging as many interviews as you can...' If you are new to international education, this scenario and the interviews that will hopefully follow it can be daunting. If you are a veteran international educator you are probably ready for this rodeo but perhaps it has been some time since your last recruiting fair. In both cases, we have a book for you to check out. Author and fellow international school podcaster Gregory LeMoine details the recruiting fair experience with flair while also offering some fun and  interesting stories. The book is Finding the Right Fit: Your Professional Guide for International Educator Recruiting Fairs and Amazing Stories of Living Overseas. https://lnkd.in/ebNutHvC. Also check out this episode of the International Teacher Podcast, where Greg describes a recent recruiting trip he took https://lnkd.in/eKYYhMD3, making connections to the book. Greg has also published a second book, International Teaching: The Best Kept Secret in Education. https://lnkd.in/eaSj-_vc It is aimed at pre-service teachers, current educators, and anyone interested in the dynamic field of international education. This comprehensive guide highlights the benefits of becoming an international teacher in an accredited international school overseas. It highlights cultural immersion, accelerated career advancement, and an optimal work-life balance. Bravo Greg! Last season we had a great time interviewing Greg, who is an international teaching veteran of 20 years currently living in the Middle East. Greg is an engaging storyteller, and he loves to laugh! Here is a link to our episode featuring Greg: https://lnkd.in/exhbsTBn Greg hosts his very fun podcast, The International Teacher Podcast, with his partners Matt and Kent. Greg invited Audrey and David to join them for a chat about international education and the plans for our podcast. Here is the link to that episode: https://lnkd.in/eQcfNBC3 Greg even agreed to telling some stories for our Educators Going Global YouTube channel. He tells a real doozy of a camel story in which he takes the viewer to new heights -- and positions -- in camel riding! Enjoy it here: https://lnkd.in/e3az4pmU
