Dear Blind Jobseekers,<br>
<br>
This is my last note to all of you before the convention. First of
all, I wanted to tell you that there will be limited Braille and large
type information at the Employment Committee events this year.
That’s because everything has been uploaded to our website,
<a href="https://employment.nfb.org/">https://employment.nfb.org/</a>
. <br>
Follow the Convention Events link on the website to links that lead to
seminar agendas, a list of Job Fair Employers, a great summary of how to
write an effective resume from Wells Fargo, and other information.
Download information onto your favorite device and bring it to the
convention. <br>
Since Job Fair pre-registration is now over, you will need to register
onsite in order to enter the Job Fair. No exceptions! We will
do Job Fair registration outside the Job Seeker Seminar from 12:30 to
4:00 pm, and outside the Job Fair itself from 8:30 to 11:30 am.
Come early so you don’t waste time in the registration line. You
don’t have to register for any of the seminars.<br>
<u>Cool new stuff</u>: the Etiquette Dinner is now full. We have
added a vegetarian option for those of you who wanted one. The
Upward Mobility Seminar is designed to help people break out of their
employment rut and advance into a better job. See the website for
dates and times of events. Byron Hardin is making a professional
recording of the Job Seeker Seminar which will be posted on the website
later for those of you who are unable to attend. <br>
For those of you who were unable to attend the convention this year
- save your money for next year, and ask for help from your NFB
state affiliate, chapter, church, family, whoever. Conduct your own
private fundraiser. You’re missing out on some good stuff this
year. <br>
<br>
Best wishes, <br>
Dick Davis, Chair<br>
