Event Recap: Dallas Professional & Technology Diversity Career Fair

image1On October 5th, Lynn Mortensen and Kate Van Dellen represented Dallas SWE at the Dallas Professional Diversity & Technology Career Fair hosted by the Professional Diversity Network.  The event, held at the Embassy Suites Market Center,  provided an excellent opportunity to showcase the advantages of being a SWE member to a diverse group of professionals. Dallas SWE members shared the many opportunities for professional development, networking and community outreach available locally and through the broader SWE organization. Several SWE members from other regions or collegiate sections stopped by to share their positive experiences being a SWE member and to inquire about how to connect with the local Dallas SWE section. A few visitors said they found out about the career fair from our website! The event gave all attendees a chance to network and socialize and to make quality connections with corporations and professional organizations who value diversity.
