2022 Student Testimonials
As an Asian student, it really means a lot to have a job fair for Asians by Asians, knowing that I'm not alone in this navigation process for internships or jobs. |
The career fair was a great networking opportunity and really helped to guide my approach toward securing a career as an AANHPI. I definitely feel more confident in my materials, presentation, and narrative after attending. |
I thought the fair had a great selection of employers and resources to improve aspects of career development like resume writing, interviewing, and using LinkedIn. |
AAD x CAPAL Summer Career Fair was definitely a worth it experience! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to advance their career skills and connect with potential employers. The staff were extremely helpful and the office hours brought about much-needed assistance. |
2022 Employer Testimonials
The AAD x CAPAL Career Fair was a wonderfully engaging experience, directly connecting dynamic, accomplished AANHPI students across the country with top employers seeking next generation leaders to hire. I was truly impressed by the calibre of students and quality of conversations I had throughout the day. |
After participating in this career fair, it definitely made me reflect on the unique challenges that Asian Americans have when entering the workplace - especially those from first and second generation immigrant families. When I was younger, I didn't have access to a lot of professional mentors (which often come from parents/family), so I think you've got a great mission. |
I had a lot of fun meeting so many students and young professionals. I'm inspired by them for taking advantage of this opportunity, especially since I never did anything like this when I was their age.
