The ACS Career Navigator™ had a great time at the 249th ACS National Meeting and Exposition in Denver, CO! Starting on Friday, five Professional Education Short Courses were held and attendees had the opportunity to gain managerial skills and learn more about polymer, analytical or biological/medicinal chemistry. Attendees at the half-day Leadership Development Courses gained valuable leadership skills that could be immediately applied to their professional job or ACS volunteer role.
The ACS Career Fair was a popular spot for members who were looking to expand their career horizons. Thirty-six recruiters from companies interviewed potential candidates and 27 companies on recruiters row were giving out information to attendees. If you weren't ready to interview, ACS Career Consultants were available to give feedback on interview skills and review resumes. ACS Career Pathways Workshops™ were offered throughout the week helping members get a better understanding of what they can expect out of a career in academia, government, industry or entrepreneurship.
ACS Career Navigator™ was also at the ACS Booth,if you stopped by, you were able to play our version of Plinko for a chance to win one of our giveaways or entered to win an iPad Mini!
