The JCMS Career Fair has had another successful year, featuring 30 industry professionals who came to our building to offer interactive presentations. Students had the unique opportunity to engage directly with these presenters, gaining valuable insights into various careers. The hands-on experiences allowed students to ask multiple questions, deepening their understanding of the fields they are interested in. It was a great chance for students to explore potential career paths while networking with professionals in a dynamic and informative setting.
