MIIS TILM Career Fair 2024

Check out or career fair journey here!

Monterey’s local Middlebury Institute of International Studies had its annual Translation, Interpretation, and Localization Management career fair on February 16^th. It was an exciting day for graduates, current students, and all participants alike.

It’s one of our favorite times of the year!

Many of our colleagues in our office are alumni from MIIS, so it’s always great to be able to go back and meet bright minds and familiar faces.

This year, the event was hosted on the MIIS campus itself, which was wonderful and brought back many memories of attending classes there and being in the same shoes as the students there today.

Speaking to the students there and hearing their enthusiasm and passion really reinvigorates us to make sure that we do our absolute best to ensure that they are coming into a flourishing industry. We truly believe in fostering a community of mutual support where everyone has the opportunity to thrive and succeed.

We made information easy for students

Our staff members were there to set up bright and early at 8:00AM and made sure to make the booth perfect and efficient.

We showcased posters featuring various position descriptions, which allowed students to intuitively understand the roles we are looking for.

Going off the success of last year, we organized information for students to scan with their phones so that they could see the positions we’re hiring for, links for them to sign up, and our advice for future interpreters.

It seems like this was a hit because we received a long line of students eager to speak with us and we received a lot of positive feedback from attendees.

We strive to deepen the connections further as we move forward.

Students felt the energy that our company has, and we felt theirs as well! Every attendee was enthusiastic about seizing the opportunity to speak with industry professionals.

The place was filled with so much potential and possibility, and it was indeed a pleasure to witness such energy and enthusiasm.

The part we’re proud of the most is how much the students said that they appreciated the genuine connections they felt when speaking with our interpreter and representative.

One of the most important talents in our industry is establishing connections with those we work with, so hearing this from not just one, but many students is something we take as a very kind compliment!

Thank you to everyone!

We’re so glad to have had the opportunity to attend this year and thank everyone at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies for making this event such a success.

We always think very highly of the event and see it as a great opportunity to meet new minds in the industry as well as just genuinely connect with people.

Thank you, and we can’t wait until next year’s!
