IAC Twitter Chat: Networking at a Career Fair

Posted by Admin On 12:52:00 PM 0 comments
On September 9th from 2pm to 3pm we will hold our third Ivan Allen College Twitter chat between students and alumni. The Chat will coincide with the Georgia Tech Career Fair; thus the topic is "How to Network at a Career Fair."

As a reminder, our Twitter chats began in the spring through the Alumni Relations subcommittee of the CLASS taskforce between C2D2 and Ivan Allen. Stephanie Jackson, Amy D'Unger, Meredith Schnepp, Jade Hill, and I have continued development on this project. Each Twitter chat brings together no more than four alums at a time to answer both moderated and student questions for one hour through social media.

We hope you will consider tuning in to the Twitter Chat. Moderated questions will be tweeted by Stephanie Jackson through the @GTliberalarts twitter account, and all tweets will use the hashtag #IACcareerchat.
