Welcome to the New England Chapter of the Society
for Technical Communication (STC NE)

Next Program: Wednesday, February 15, 2012

Working with recruiters, from the recruiters point of view

From last month's program, we learned that job searchers have the following issues:

1. Why don’t I hear back from the agency once I apply?

2. Why don’t I hear back anything when I submit to online jobs?

3. Why are rates lower through agencies than if they are independent contractors?.

In a panel format, Caleb Stewart from Randolph Associates, and Carol Szatkowski, from Clear Point Consultants will answer these questions, as well as, discuss various topics related to job searching, the job market, and working with recruiters.

Notice, if you are attending the STC Summit in Chicago:

The G8 & NATO Summits are taking place 19-21 May, overlapping the STC Summit by two days. These events are in downtown Chicago, while the STC Summit is 30 miles west of the city in Rosemont, so we do not anticipate any issues.

We encourage you to make your hotel reservation at the Hyatt and book your airfare as early as possible. STC has a block of rooms at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare, but once that's depleted you may find room rates greatly increased.
