Career Builders counter recruitment was on the job Tuesday,
9/13/16, at the Chico High School “Career Fair”. We talked to
so many students and parents it might have been our best event yet.
Thanks to Sue G. and Sue M. from the Ridge Coalition for Peace &
Justice for their help in lining up our table at the event and
bringing their Career Builder stand up exhibit and so many brochures.
They brought the “Opt Out” forms that many took advantage of and
many other hand outs that sparked some great discussions.
We had a table (not far from several
military recruiters) and all three of us were busy talking to high
school seniors and their parents probably 70% of the time from 5:30
pm to 7:30 pm.
We had six stand up exhibits, we set up
in a corner spot, by an exit, that turned out to have a lot of
traffic. Many of the people who stopped by our table expressed
gratitude to us for our being there. As we left a woman walked by
and said, “Thank you guys so much for being here and
sharing your information.” We got the feeling that we were doing a
good thing.
