Virtual Career FairWOMEN MBA'S 2010 VIRTUAL CAREER FAIR
September 29, 2010
10:00 am to 6:00 pm EST

Join us this Fall for the Women MBA's 2010 Virtual Career Fair.  Forté Foundation is proud to join Women MBA’s 2010 Virtual Career Fair as an organization partner.  Top MBA women from around the country will be there along with national recruiters from leading companies including Forté sponsors.  This virtual career fair allows you to video chat and interview with employers from around the country, from your home computer or laptop.  Traditional career fairs have become very expensive to attend and many companies have reduced their campus recruiting visits.  When you add in time away from school online interviewing makes more sense than ever.  Over 500 women MBAs from top schools are expected to register.  There is no cost for you to attend the virtual career fair and no software to download but space is limited.  Please review the attached invitation and sign up at www.womenmbavirtualcareerfair.com!  If you have any questions, please contact Anne Montoya at anne.montoya@womenmbavirtualcareerfair.com.
