“I think Career Expo is a best practice not only in terms of what the Florid High Tech Corridor Council does, but also in terms of the relationships between university and industry. It’s an excellent example of a collaboration that matches students and high tech needs. The connections we made at Career Expo are invaluable.”

“We were able to connect our Carnegie Mellon students with many new employers in the region. I still have the directory and will to utilize the many contacts I made. Thanks again to everyone for hosting such a wonderful event and allowing us to talk to so many employers in such a unique and very productive way.”

“Career Expo ’07 really opened the students’ eyes—and our eyes—to all the technology opportunities and innovation in Central Florida. After attending Career Expo ’07, we went straight to work to give every Corridor employer special login access to our career service website where they can post job openings and search for potential applicants meeting specific criteria. If we had not attended Career Expo ’07, we would not have known about the expansion and growth happening in the Florida High Tech Corridor. This was a great experience, and it was a privilege to learn about what the Corridor has to offer.”

“We found the event a great first step in our employment search. Now, it’s up to us to follow through and make the longer term connections. Great Job—count us in for next year!”

“Before coming to Career Expo ’07, I didn’t have any idea of where to send job-seeking students in computer information technology curriculum. Your event opened up numerous employment opportunities for students looking to start careers in the IT industry.”

“Thank you very much for hosting Career Expo ’07. I have made contact with a few companies already and hope to provide students to your wonderful state. Thank you again for a great event and I look forward to next year’s event.”
