Career Day is less than two weeks away. As you can imagine, putting together one of the largest annual professional development events for advertising and marketing in Kansas City is no small task. Aside from the dedicated event planning team, scores of volunteers and crack industry insiders are making preparations and crafting presentations for what should be an incredible day of learning and networking.
This year we are offering three session "tracks" for attendees to choose from: Creative, Account Service and General/Undecided. Within each track there will be speaker sessions on emerging technologies, work culture and more. The tracks allow us to provide attendees with more relevant information and provide speakers with better objectives for the topics they will be covering. We are also adding a Career Fair component in addition to the always popular Resume and Portfolio Reviews.
What companies and agencies will be represented at Career Day? A who's who of KC's best: Barkley, Bernstein-Rein, C3, Callahan Creek, Digital Evolution Group, emfluence, Garmin, Global Dairy Products, Glynn Devins, Hallmark, Landa Job Advertising & Marketing, Meers, Morgan Hunter, Muller Bressler Brown, Osborn & Barr, PlattForm Advertising, Propaganda 3, Springboard Creative, VML and many more.
And all of this will be located within the comfortable and historic confines of Kansas City's Union Station.
Whether you're a student, a professor or faculty member, or a professional trying to enter the industry, don't miss AAF-KC's Career Day.
