Northern Essex students and community business representatives are invited to attend NECC’s Second Annual Networking Night, taking place on May 19 in the Haverhill Campus Hartleb Technology Center at 100 Elliott Street. The event will run from 5:30-7:30 p.m. and is free for all participants.

This networking night will help students become more comfortable in networking environments and build their professional communication skills. All NECC students are welcome to register. Employers are encouraged to use the opportunity to hire students for internships and part-time jobs at their companies.

The dress code is business casual to business professional. Resumes are not required for entry.

The networking night, in addition to giving students a chance to speak with real employers in a comfortable, low-stress environment, will include the opportunity to receive a professional LinkedIn profile photo, as well as a variety of light refreshments and presentations. Staff members will be on site to answer questions as needed.

In order to participate in this year’s networking night, please register online.
