Lawrence Journal-World

I serve hundreds of local and regional employers by putting on job fairs and providing job posting services using job boards, digital banner ads, newspaper, email, and social media. As an entrepreneur and former staffing business manager, I take the success of our employers personally--Their success is my success.

Sales & Operations 

Step Up Job Fairs

At Journal-World Media & Step Up Job Fairs I have helped hundreds of employers find qualified candidates. I developed the Lawrence, Topeka, and Kansas City job fairs, seeking and incorporating feedback from employers and job seekers, and striving to make our job fairs the most effective in the region. We attract job seekers using websites, social media, email and partnership marketing, radio and newspapers to get the word out to active and passive candidates. My one-hour "Motivational Training" before each job fair increases the "step-up and speak" rate during the job fairs, and contributes to what some employers say are the most effective job fairs they attend. The training is not your typical job seeker presentation however--This is Steven Covey & Zig Ziglar crossed with a recruiter and hiring manager, and I help the perpetually unemployed to transform how they think and behave so that employers will be confident that they should hire them.
