Attend and Document a Networking Event
Background information on the networking event.
- The networking event I attended was called Hub Networking Mixer and it
took place at Ted Rogers School of Management campus on Monday,
October 23, 2023, between 12-2 pm. It was an event where we had an
opportunity to meet and network with recruiters from 7 different
organizations to learn about exciting co-op, internship, and new grad
opportunities
Why I selected it and my goals for attending the event.
- I selected it as I want to learn more about co-op and the benefits of taking
co-op programs. My goals for attending this event were to be more
comfortable with co-op opportunities in general as I find it interesting.
Who will be at the event?
- Ameer Ali, Tina Wilson, Francesco Varano, Tara Flynn, Anika Marzia,
Rhythm Patel and Foram Shukla
What are your goals?
- As said before, my goals were to be more comfortable with the co-op
opportunities they were educating and providing us.
What are their goals?
- Their goals were to educate us students with exciting co-op, internship and
grad opportunities that their organization was providing.
What can they do for you? (What do you get?)
- They can provide information about different kinds of opportunities that they
were telling us about, one of the main ones being co-op.
What can you do for them? (What do you give?)
- We can join their co-op programs and help them with what they are requiring
for us to do like market their products and more.
Develop event-specific goals.
- One event-specific goal I have is to be able to gain enough information about
what we students can do in co-op as it seems like it would be an interesting
opportunity to be part of.
Questions I would like to ask at the event.
- A question I would like to ask at the event would be if I wanted to go into
retail marketing, would I have to take any marketing courses or would I be
able to go into marketing with just a business education background?
How would I rate this event?
