After returning from Japan, many JET Programme Alumni are faced with the question: ‘what do I do next?’ The answer isn’t always so easy to determine, especially if you’re experiencing mild disorientation from reverse culture shock. The question then may become: ‘what can I do?’ or ‘what jobs are out there?’ or even ‘what kind of networks do I have that can help me?’ Career searching may seem like a daunting challenge, but with help from JETAA Toronto it doesn’t have to be.
There are also JET Programme Alumni who have been returning from Japan since 1991, who have established careers in a variety of professional industries, and now may be looking to broaden their networks with like-minded individuals or even to provide sage advice to those looking to get into their chosen field. JETAA Toronto can help facilitate this as well.
If you’re a former JET Program participant (JETAA) and would either like to embark on a career path or network amongst established industry representatives then you should come out to the Career Round Table. With support from the Japanese Consulate of Toronto, it is with great pleasure that JETAA is able to debut this opportune career development and networking event on Thursday November 7th, 6:30-9pm at The Japan Foundation.
The evening will commence with registration at 6:30pm, and then will be split into two parts. In the first hour, professionals from education, tourism, finance, healthcare, sales and marketing, entrepreneurial, communications and non-for-profit industries will present an overview of their respective fields. The last hour will be open networking over delicious wine and cheese, allowing JETAA members to further mingle and engage with industry representatives.
If you are a former JET participant and are interested in attending The Career Round Table or if you would like additional information about the event please contact the JETAA Conference Coordinator by November 1st at conference@staging.jetaatoronto.ca. An RSVP is optional, but much appreciated. This event is open to all JETAA members, so we hope you take advantage of the evening and look forward to seeing you there.
