Although the Class of 2012 won’t enter the job market for quite a few months, inside sales director Kristin Terdik and recruiter Linda Ceriello are already planning ahead. They’re working to identify and develop career and internship opportunities for neighboring NC State University students and grads with an Advisory Board including:
- Marcy Bullock, Director of Career Services
- Ron Campbell Ph.D., International AgriBusiness Law /Advanced AgriBusiness Law
- Jim Flowers Ph.D., Department Head, Department of Agriculture and Extension Education
- Arnie Oltmans Ph.D., Associate Professor, Agricultural and Resource Economics
- Fred Parker, Assistant Professor – Agricultural and Resource Economics
- Jonathan Phillips M.S., Senior Lecturer, Human Resources and Economics
- John Russ, Ph.D, Lecturer – Agricultural and Resource Economics
- Guido van der Hoeven M.S., Extension Specialist/Senior Lecturer
- W. Edward Weems, Permanent Lecturer, Marketing, MIE, ARE
“Our goal is to prepare students with what is needed in the employment market. I am glad we had the time to discuss mutual concerns, issues and opportunities as classes kick off this week,” said van der Hoeven.
The group met yesterday for their (6th) annual luncheon to discuss an upcoming open house for students and professors, hosted by Technekes, titled “Career Preparation In An Unstable Job Market.” Linda and Kristin were spurred on by Professor Phillips, who said, “With its own library and constant employee improvement programs; Technekes is a practical training ground nestled in a desirable work environment with upward mobility.”
Technekes also earned high marks from Dr. Campbell, “Your company is on the cutting edge of many advances in the field and is earning a strong reputation.”
Thanks, professors! We’d blush — but we’ve got to get back to work, so we can live up to your kind words!
