Teacher candidates were able to make some valuable connections for the future at the Options Career Fair, held Tuesday at Duncan McArthur Hall.

The annual event brings together potential employers such as school boards, schools and camps as well as several international organizations.

Teacher candidates were able to gather information, meet one on one with a variety of organizations and get some career support from Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s partners.

This year카지노 게임 컬렉션s event drew 52 organizations, up from an average of 40, a potentially positive sign for the job market.

카지노 게임 컬렉션As a career advisor and as an employment advisor, it really heartens me that there is this many organizations coming and wanting to recruit and hire our graduates, which means something because it has been such a tight job market,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Elspeth Morgan, Career and Recruitment Advisor for the Faculty of Education. 카지노 게임 컬렉션But now I say to them, 카지노 게임 컬렉션Look, we have all these people here, they aren카지노 게임 컬렉션t here because they don카지노 게임 컬렉션t want to hire graduates.카지노 게임 컬렉션카지노 게임 컬렉션

One such graduate is Will Cunningham, a faculty intern at Trinity College School in Port Hope, who returned to the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s with the goal of helping teacher candidates make the connection that he did at last year카지노 게임 컬렉션s event.

카지노 게임 컬렉션At this time last year I had no idea what I was going to do. It was because of this Options Career Fair that I made contact with TCS,카지노 게임 컬렉션 he says. Afterwards he applied and was able to land his first teaching job. 카지노 게임 컬렉션The other reason I came back is that the Education Career Services department at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s is so fantastic.카지노 게임 컬렉션

Among the organizations in attendance was the Toronto District School Board (TDSB), Canada카지노 게임 컬렉션s biggest school board. Sam Iskandar, principal of Silverthorn Secondary School and Reika Fuentes, Ed카지노 게임 컬렉션94, vice-principal of Bloor Collegiate, were busy answering a number of questions from teacher candidates about what the TDSB is looking for.

카지노 게임 컬렉션A number of people have asked 카지노 게임 컬렉션What are you looking for?카지노 게임 컬렉션 and honestly we are looking for people who connect with kids, people who love what they do,카지노 게임 컬렉션 Mr. Iskandar says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션They ask us should I take anything in particular and we tell them take any subject that they enjoy teaching. You don카지노 게임 컬렉션t want to be teaching something you don카지노 게임 컬렉션t enjoy. When you do something you enjoy the kids love it, you카지노 게임 컬렉션re very effective and the kids benefit huge.카지노 게임 컬렉션
