We had a great conversation about finding a job and securing job opportunities during this week's Thursdays @ 3. We had one question we weren't able to answer on the call so I wanted to share it here and the response from one of the panelists
@Tony Lau.
Question: "What if a company did not advertise any volunteer position on their websites. How did you get in?"
Response: "My first full-time job was not advertised anywhere. I met my future boss at a ASCE Hawaii Section dinner meeting where student members were allowed to attend at half-price. He indicated that they were looking to replace someone who had just left their company. Later that night, he offered me an opportunity to come to their office for an interview." - @Tony Lau
