Cody B. Hann, USITT Sales Manager – Expo | Advertising and Sponsorship commented, “As we as an entertainment and live events industry pick ourselves up after such an unprecedented and unexpected intermission, we are excited to have partners like piVot2 join us in an effort to get our members, friends, and colleagues back to work. Having piVot2 join us as our Recruitment Sponsor for our 2021 USITT Virtually Anywhere Conference & Stage Expo expands the career opportunities for the current and future generations of technical theatre professionals.”
When attendees register for the Employment Portal, they will be offered two deeply discounted p2 one-on-one consulting packages: Personal Branding or Trade Show Job Search Prep 101. These packages will build registrants’ LinkedIn Power Profiles (LIPs), resumes, trade show floor navigation skills, and winning interview techniques. The packages are based on p2’s successful collaborations with technical theatre programs across the USA, making this year’s show a unique way to stand out in the Employment Portal. A limited number of post-show packages will be available.
“Irene took the time to get to know my professional goals and mentor me while I was still in graduate school”, stated Collin Huse, theatre consultant, Nextstage Design (FSU|MFA). “Her personal approach to my job search connected me to an excellent company where I felt at home immediately both personally and professionally. I would never have found this opportunity without Irene’s vast network, strong communication skills and her expertise in connecting like-minded individuals.”
