HIWT Holds Summer Job Fair

On June 5th, Hobart Institute of Technology hosted
a job fair. Nearly 30 employers from all over the
United States eager to hire our graduates attended.
Students networked with different companies while
others had resumes in hand to give perspective
employers. These job fairs are a great way for
employers to be introduced to the students who
work hard at perfecting the art of welding. Many
students schedule interviews and are hired from
these job fairs. We would like to send out a special
Thank you to all those who participated. If you are
interested in participating in our job fair or posting to
our job board, please call 332-9500 ext. 9601.

Dress to Impress

A common question our students ask us as they are getting ready
to graduate is, What do I wear to my interview? The answer is
simple: A nice pair of jeans (no holes), a clean shirt (polo or long
sleeve button up) and a nice pair of boots. You also need to be
prepared to take a weld test if you are asked. Unless you are told
otherwise, you should always have all of your PPE with you as well.
Making a good frst impression goes a long way to landing that
great job. Remember, you never get a second chance to make a frst
impression.
