Attended Career Fair at Ted Rogers School of Management on 22nd September, 2011

Attended the career fair at Ryerson University. It was a great experience. Companies that were on campus for information sessions as well as hiring were more tha 20. But some of them that I can mention are:

• TD Canada trust
• Nielson (Marketing research company)
• KPMG
• Target Corporation
• Winners
• Loblaws
• Canadian Tire
• Staples
• CGI
• CMA
• Money Mart
• Quantum Canada
• Xerox

and so on. I dropped off my resumes with many of these companies. It was good to have a discussion with the representatives of these companies and get a feel of what they have to offer. KNowledge of the job market is extremely essential and it is only possible by personal on-on-one exposure to a variety of employers and recruiters. I do not think that only arm chair tactics / strategy (surfing the web sitting at home) are always enough to get you jobs. Cheers!
