Career-worthy networking skills

Seven Heidelberg students and Mark McKee, director of Career Development and Placement, traveled to Columbus to participated in the Ohio Foundation of Independent Colleges Bi-Annual Career and Internship Fair Friday. At the fair, students were provided the opportunity to network with professionals from companies across Ohio and Michigan. The networking time provided them a glimpse into how to effectively network during a large event. Additionally, many of the contacts made by students during this fair can assist them as they pursue future internships and employment upon graduating. Participating students were Patricia Hartleip, Meriah Estremera, Tyler Barker, James Hanley, Hunter Rinard, Christopher Storrs and Alex Engelhardt.
