Free ADVANCE Virtual Job Fair

ADVANCE is offering a free virtual job fair on May 12, 2009 | 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM Eastern Time. According to thier announcments, some benefits include the following of which you can also read more about by clicking the 'Click Here' link at the bottom of this post:

• Virtual Exhibit Hall

Visit exhibitor booths, collect information about job opportunities, research facilities and chat with top regional recruiters—all from the comfort of your computer.

• Distribute Your Resume

You can create your resume ahead of time using their Resume Builder application or you may upload a pre-existing resume file once the virtual exhibit hall opens. You will be prompted with instructions the first time you click the ‘Submit a Resume’ button in a virtual booth. Resume Builder documents will automatically populate at this time. Once your resume has been successfully uploaded, it will be saved for distribution to other exhibitors for the remainder of the event.

• FREE Online Education Sessions

Attend convenient classes on relevant, interesting healthcare topics via an easy to use webinar format. You can visit the Virtual Sessions area up to 30 minutes prior to the event. We encourage you to arrive early in order to complete all webinar set-up instructions before the session is scheduled to begin.

• Cool Prizes

Enter to win great cash prizes or one of four Exxon/Mobile gift cards (one $200 and three $100 prizes awarded per night) as you navigate the virtual exhibit hall. Each booth you visit is another chance to win. All prizes will be awarded and sent to the winners by mail after the event ends.

• Fun Shopping Discounts

Attendees will automatically receive a 20% off coupon for the ADVANCE Healthcare Shop good towards the purchase of all regular and sale priced merchandise (excluding clearance items). The coupon will appear in your virtual tote bag once the exhibit hall opens. Coupons will become valid at the close of the live event and will remain valid for 60 days.

• Program Guide

Attendees will automatically receive a downloadable program guide full of important exhibitor information in their virtual tote bag. Program guides can be printed at your convenience for reference after the event has closed.

• Access to the event for an additional 30 days

If you are unable to attend the live version, you will be able to access a recorded version of the educational sessions, collect facility information, view open positions and distribute your resume in each exhibitor booth for 30 days after the live event closes. Please note, however, that you will still need to register for the event and that the live recruiter chat options and prize drawings will no longer be available at this time.

IAMP On Twitter

According to their website, “Twitter is a free service that lets you keep in touch with people through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?”

So why have we at IAMP decided to join and use twitter? Well, quite simple it is 2009 and being that we are a high tech medical imaging college it is important for us to stay current, progressive, and in touch with our students.

Utilizing twitter allows us to post quick notes to our students and alumni on topics such as upcoming events, classes, weather delays and/or cancelations, graduation dates, alumni meetings and really anything worthwhile that we feel you should know.

Our twitter URL is www.twitter.com/iampedu. It is free so you can join, become a follower of IAMP’s tweets and get automatically updated when postings go live.

We look forward to this venture. Let’s tweet!
