Advancing Your Career

The last professional development event of the 2008-2009 fiscal year was a tremendous success!

A panel of community leaders, each representing a different sector of the business world, spoke to a group of young leaders about the best ways to advance your career. Topics ranged from resume writing to interview skills to dos and don'ts in the workplace.

The panelists were very forthcoming with their advice and according to feedback received after the event, attendees felt they benefited from the wisdom of four well-established professionals living and working in the community.
