Language in Action - Program Update! On Monday September 29th, the Language in Action Program hosted a Job Fair Preparation Workshop facilitated by Mary Coulas and Golshan Mahjoub! Almost all participants had no previous experience with attending job fairs, so the session focused on practical tips to help them feel confident and prepared. They learned about job fair etiquette, how to prepare, how to get there, and other key tips for making a strong and impactful presence at the job fair. Participants also explored elevator pitches, wrote their own, practiced them, and received feedback to strengthen their delivery. This hands-on session has equipped them with the skills and confidence needed for the upcoming Ottawa Career Fair next week. 💡 If you’re attending the Ottawa Career Fair, on October 8th, make sure to stop by the Ottawa Community Immigrant Services Organization - OCISO booth to learn more about the RAISE and LIA programs. Mary and Golshan, the program facilitators, will be there to answer your questions.

SBCC has been on a roll with career fairs lately! The DE&A team attended the Louisiana Tech Fall 2025 Career Fair to interact with Computer Science students. Many of them proved to be strong candidates to join our University Partnership Program. “I really enjoy the networking piece of the career fairs. I find value in being able to provide mentorship by telling my own career story. It helps the students to visualize an overall career journey, and encourages them to take a first step in what can be an overwhelming and unfamiliar environment." Alicea Snellgrove, MBA, UPP Program Manager Career fairs aren't just about handing out résumés — they’re about building genuine connections. When you take the time to listen, share your story, and learn about others, you’re laying the foundation for trust. Whether you're a recruiter or a job seeker, the goal is the same: real conversations that lead to real opportunities. William Francis, Joshua Francis, Grant Cooper, Russell Kelly

I had the opportunity to attend the Topple Job Fair, and it was an eye-opening experience. As a first-year, here's what I learned from attending: 1. Job fairs are opportunities for me to explore industries I may not have originally considered. At this fair, I explored companies ranging from hospitality to finance, which admittedly helped me grow out of the bubble of what I know and am used to; architecture firms. 2. Networking is a muscle built through practice. It is always scary starting a conversation with a new person, but once I made the first gesture, it offers tremendous value and insight into the lives of professionals and the mission of a company. 3. Job fairs are not just about applications, they're about building confidence in telling your story and making meaningful connections. As much as my resume lists my activities, it can’t quite capture my passion for growing and learning as a person and dedicating myself to creating great quality work, something I can communicate through conversation. Overall, I am grateful for the chance to learn, grow, and prepare for my future one conversation at a time!
