Calling all students interested in learning more about post-grad careers related to business administration/management, manufacturing, distribution, supply chain management/logistics, and more through the lens of a global brand!
Jeff Simon, a co-owner of H Window (located in Ashland, but doing business globally), will be at Northland to present an overview of the company, what his role and others entail, how he gained relevant experience to get there, and advice for students who are considering careers in similar fields (which may include internship or job suggestions).
This event is open to current Northland College students only.
This presentation is part of Garret Zastoupil’s Managing for Sustainability fall course, but a limited number of spots are also available to other students who are interested in the topic and making valuable connections with this representative (upper-level students—we’re looking at you!).
Please register to confirm your spot if you are not already enrolled in the Business 140 course during the Fall Term. Having trouble? Connect with Student Career Advisor Julie Winter for help!
