Want to know more about a potential career path you’re interested in?

Douglas College will host a Meet the Pros event on Oct.25, marking the beginning of a series of events where employers will come to the College and meet with students to discuss careers in different sectors.

The upcoming event – Meet the Pros: Secure your future – focuses on careers in the security sector and will include representatives from the RCMP,  the New Westminster Police Department and the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).

CBSA is recruiting Student Border Services Officers for summer 2017 and the RCMP is recruiting for patrol members. Students from all programs are encouraged to attend.

Starlight Casino will also be at the Meet the Pros event, hiring for a variety of positions, including application support analyst, compensation advisor, human resources generalist and security compliance manager. The aforementioned roles do require students to have two to three years of experience in the related field, and often require a diploma or degree in business, as well.

Register to co-op@douglascollege.ca by Monday Oct. 24 at 9am with your name, student ID and program, as well as Meet the Pros as the subject line. Bring your resume and dress professionally.

The event is in the Douglas Room (N1200) at the New Westminster Campus, 5-6:30pm.

The evening begins with a panel question-and-answer period, followed by networking and recruiting. Pizza and beverages will be served.
