The Philadelphia Chapter Cordially Invites You to Join Them As Celebrate 40 Years of Leadership Excellence at the Joint Pre-Conference Event: A Career Conference Toolkit!
The National Black MBA Association (NBMBAA) Philadelphia Chapter and Prospanica Philadelphia (formerly known as NSHMBA) present their 4th Joint Pre-Career Conference Toolkit Experience! The most successful conference participants will be those who design a clear strategy - knowing who they want to talk to and why. They will approach possible employers, allies and colleagues with a clear and compelling career narrative that will help them stand out from the crowd as they try to earn an elusive in-conference interview.
The goal is to equip participants with a tool kit of valuable feedback and resources to maximize their career fair experience. We seek to create a safe place where participants can practice networking skills, enhance their resume and professional brand.
The NBMBAA Philadelphia Chapter and Prospanica Philadelphia are excited to collaborate with University and Corporate partners for this dynamic event!
