Please join us on Wednesday, April 7 at 6:00pm at the Hotel Adagio in San Francisco for the MPINCC Student Affairs' Backpacks to Briefcases event.  This is a free program in which we will provide you with real-world information, examples and personalities from the industry.  We welcome all students (members and non-members) interested in hospitality, meetings and events.  The program will feature a hotel site inspection, one-on-one time with industry professionals and strategic resume building.  You’ll learn which font styles and size of font work best, preferred file formats, length of resume, and many more formatting dos and don’ts.  In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to try these new skills out on your own resume, so be sure to bring a copy with you.  Each registered attendee will also receive a copy of the presenter’s book titled Who’s In Charge of Your Career? Creating a Strategy for Success.
