ND CAREER NIGHT 1/10
A couple of FAQs answered:
1. Yes, this is specifically for the ND Club - you may make contacts for friends, but this is a specific perk for alumni and ND Club members.
2. Bring copies of your resume and business cards if you are seeking job opportunities!
On Thursday, January 10th, 6:30-8:30pm, the ND Club of Washington DC will once again host the ND community at Jones Day (51 Louisiana Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20001) for a Notre Dame Career Night. This event will be highlighted by a speech by John Sturm, the new Associate Vice President of Federal and Washington Relations, who will speak on his new position and the value of networking in the Notre Dame community. Tables will be arranged by industry, and those with possible job openings will be near the table to answer questions and identify potential future coworkers.
Please bring your resume and join us for a night of networking and refreshments. It is only $10 for ND Club of DC Members and $15 for non-Club Members, to cover complimentary drinks and snacks. Please register in advance.
Thanks, Go Irish, and see you on January 10th!
HURRICANE SANDY RELIEF EFFORTS
Many people in New York and New Jersey, including some of Notre Dame's own, are dealing with horrific problems in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. The storm destroyed their houses and possessions, and many have been displaced from their homes and will need help for the indefinite future. Members of the Notre Dame family throughout the northeast already are working very hard to assist our friends and neighbors. To those of you who want to join our efforts, please see how you can help!
