​WE ARE BACK – live and in-person and looking for employers who understand the value in providing opportunities for student-athletes and the great transferable skills they bring as employees!!!
 
The Fall ’22 Hoosier Network Event will take place on Tuesday, October 18th, in the South Lobby of Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall, from 7:00-9:00pm.  There is no fee to be a part of this event, and we will provide refreshments. 
 
We are looking for employers who have job shadowing, internship and/or full time positions they need to fill with people who know how to work hard, stay focused, be coachable, lead, persevere, be a member of a team, show initiative, think outside the box, and take feedback and turn it into positive change.  Our students are excited to begin the recruiting process for “the real world”!  From seniors and grad students who have specific career goals in mind, to freshmen who are just beginning to chart their course – they want to learn from you, share their unique stories, and discover how they might contribute to your organization.
 
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to Lisa Winters at [email protected]. 
 
To those of you who have participated in the past, we look forward to seeing and working with you again!  To those who are new, we are excited to get to know you and partner in this mutually beneficial event!  To all of you, we cannot do it without you, and we thank you for your partnership and support!
