Student Job Fair

We are hosting the 15th Annual Student Job Fair at the 2012 Missouri Natural Resources Conference on Wednesday, February 1, 2012 in Parasol I & II at the Tan-Tar-A Resort in Osage Beach.

Individual interaction with employers will provide information to students about hiring trends in the Forestry, Fisheries, and Wildlife disciplines. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn about the latest information on gaining employment in the conservation field.

The Job Fair will begin at 4:30 pm and will conclude at the start of the Conference Mixer at 6:30. Representatives from several resource agencies, not-for-profit organizations and businesses who have jobs currently open will be present.  NEW THIS YEAR: we will have a “Speed Networking” session in Room 74/75. We will also continue the popular resume critique booth so that participants can have their resumes polished up by resource professionals. Information on specific jobs will be available, as in past years.
