Career Events

Resume Review and Interview Skills Workshop

Monday, 8 April – 6:00pm-7:00pm

Interested parties will be paired with a hiring manager from within the field that will review your résumé and provide suggestions to help maximize the impact of your application materials. Reviewers will look over your entire résumé while being mindful of the detail and scrutiny that a potential employer would use. Be sure to visit the events table after checking in at registration on Sunday or Monday morning to reserve your spot as only a limited number of opportunities will be available.

Career Fair

Wednesday, 10 April – 5:00pm-7:00pm

Representatives from zoos, aquariums and other facilities will be onsite to discuss career and internship opportunities with their organizations. This is a great place to bring your résumé and business cards to meet potential employers face to face.

We are recruiting facilities interested in participating in the Career Fair! This networking opportunity is a great way to advertise job and/or internship opportunities within your facility. Tables usually consist of 1-2 staff members, facility “swag” to give away and either paper copies or a QR code for current openings. Any interested facilities may contact Madelyn Hettiger prior to the conference to claim a table or with any additional questions at: kmadelynn@gmail.com.
