Pulse February Event - REAL COLORS     

 

If you had a key that would unlock the answers to human behavior, would you use it? Imagine having the knowledge to truly understand yourself and others, without requiring years of study.

At this event we will be giving you that key to identify four temperaments (Blue, Gold, Green & Orange). As a result, it will provide you with an effective tool for understanding human behavior, for uncovering motivators specific to each temperament and for improving communication skills. Most importantly, it will be easy to incorporate into all areas of daily life. It is the key to achieving higher levels of success, personally and professionally.

Employment Fair Header

 

The Fox Cities Chamber of Commerce in collaboration with the Fox Valley Workforce Development Board and the Fox Cities Workforce Center will sponsor the Fox Cities Employment and Resource Fair on March 22nd from 10 AM to 3 PM.  This event will be held in the University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley campus field house.

 

This community job and employment resource fair seeks to connect job seekers with employers representing a wide range of occupations to fill workforce needs today and in the future! 

 

The 2012 Economic Outlook survey highlighted the difficulty in hiring qualified workers (both locally, at state and national levels). The fair gives businesses a chance to connect directly with a number of job seekers at one time.  Last year in 2011, the fair had 560 job seekers with 42 employer and resource booths - with an overwhelmingly positive response.
