IRTS MULTICULTURAL CAREER WORKSHOP
February 28 & March 1, 2013  
(New dates following the postponement of the workshop during the week of Super Storm Sandy)
New York City

Now in its 29th year, the IRTS Multicultural Career Workshop is a two-day conference that continues to be singled out by human resource professionals as one of the best places to find skilled students and recent graduates for job and internship opportunities. Attendees will learn about opportunities in digital media, creative production, advertising, research, sales and marketing, while attending a full day of seminars during the Workshop’s first day. Students will then have the chance to meet with human resource professionals from major media companies during the Workshop’s career fair on day two.

ELIGIBILITY
Applicants must be college juniors, seniors, graduate students and recent graduates at the time of application. You need not be a communications major, however IRTS seeks applicants who have demonstrated the skills necessary to succeed in a corporate environment, and/or have an interest in communications through experience and extra-curricular activities. Accomplished students from all majors (including math, computer science, business, marketing, digital media, communications, etc.) are encouraged to apply. Corporations have a wide range of departments  (research, programming, production, news, public relations, sales, marketing, accounting, legal affairs, and creative services), therefore they seek applicants from many different disciplines.

DAY ONE
Conferees attend a comprehensive orientation to the electronic media business featuring panels as well as opportunities to network with peers and professionals.

DAY TWO
Attendees meet with Human Resource professionals from more than 30 major communications companies.

COSTS:

• Participants attend workshop events free of charge.


• Continental Breakfast and lunch will be provided.


• Students who are accepted are required to attend both days of the program. All students will be responsible for their own travel to and from the Workshop.
