[Nfbnet-members-list] Dear Blind Jobseekers

[David Andrews]

Dear Blind Jobseekers,

This is my last note to all of you before the convention.  First of 
all, I wanted to tell you that there will be limited Braille and 
large type information at the Employment Committee events this 
year.  That's because everything has been uploaded to our website, 
<https://employment.nfb.org/>https://employment.nfb.org/.
Follow the Convention Events link on the website to links that lead 
to seminar agendas, a list of Job Fair Employers, a great summary of 
how to write an effective resume from Wells Fargo, and other 
information.  Download information onto your favorite device and 
bring it to the convention.
Since Job Fair pre-registration is now over, you will need to 
register onsite in order to enter the Job Fair.  No exceptions!  We 
will do Job Fair registration outside the Job Seeker Seminar from 
12:30 to 4:00 pm, and outside the Job Fair itself from 8:30 to 11:30 
am.  Come early so you don't waste time in the registration 
line.  You don't have to register for any of the seminars.
Cool new stuff: the Etiquette Dinner is now full.  We have added a 
vegetarian option for those of you who wanted one.  The Upward 
Mobility Seminar is designed to help people break out of their 
employment rut and advance into a better job.  See the website for 
dates and times of events.  Byron Hardin is making a professional 
recording of the Job Seeker Seminar which will be posted on the 
website later for those of you who are unable to attend.
For those of you who were unable to attend the convention this year 
-  save your money for next year, and ask for help from your NFB 
state affiliate, chapter, church, family, whoever.  Conduct your own 
private fundraiser.  You're missing out on some good stuff this year.

Best wishes,
Dick Davis, Chair
NFB Employment Committee
