Hi all, You have through Friday (I'll even stretch it to Sunday if you reach me personally) to sign up for the Oct. 24 Internship Fair for the $25 rate. SO YOU DON'T NEED AN INTERN? Many of you have said you don't need interns right now. I'd say you never know how they can be useful until you talk to them. You might be surprised at the things you aren't getting done for lack of help that a student can do. And many don't need the credit, just work experience. OK - WHY COME IF YOU HAVE NO INTEREST IN INTERNS? For those with NO INTEREST in interns, I'm going to make a personal pitch to get you there are exhibitors for the sake of Hidden-Tech and your companies. Although interns are primary, connecting YOU TO UMASS is a major concern for all of us. The IT Program promotes IT to non-IT majors throughout the campus -- to 40-plus departments. Students, faculty and administrators will be there. Do I need to say more? Do you know that UMass is one of the region's biggest employers? EXHIBITORS WILL CONNECT TO MAJOR CORPORATIONS Last - there will be MAJOR CORPORATIONS presenting that hire subcontractors. Only exhibitors will get the advantage of chatting with them before students arrive. Once students show up, Hidden-Tech needs to back off these companies. I will personally assure that happens. So please register at www.hidden-tech.net. There's a form already embedded in the promotion for the event. If for any reason you can't get to this before Friday, but email me that you will register by the weekend, I can extend the early bird offer to you. After Friday, for those who don't reach me, the cost rises to $40. best, Amy Zuckerman Hidden-Tech Founder, Clerk
