Students Found Great Futures at Futures Fest Career Fair

September 28, 2017

MCAA’s 2017 GreatFutures Forum kicked off with the Futures Fest career fair on September 28, 2017. The first-ever such event for this conference was a huge success. Representatives from almost 40 participating MCAA member companies were on hand to connect with hundreds of students. Conversation was plentiful, with discussions focused around the employment and internship opportunities available at each company.

If being hired wasn’t enough, the students each received a $500 gift card. Their employers qualified for a reward in the form of a $1,000 internship grant, our way of saying “thanks” for giving a bright, well-educated future professional his or her start on a great career.

Space will be available throughout the conference to continue the conversations with more extensive interviews. Those hired, and those who do the hiring, will qualify for the same rewards throughout the conference.
