JRA sponsors The New Zealand Herald Your Career Expo, 27-28 Sep 2008

We are excited to announce our sponsorship of this major event, scheduled to be held in Auckland at the ASB Showgrounds on 27-28 September.

The Expo will be split into four pavilions, each offering employers and job seekers the opportunity to meet during one of the most challenging talent markets New Zealand has ever experienced.  One of these, the ‘JRA Great Places to Work pavilion’, will attract visitors seeking to research organisations that best suit their needs or explore specific selection criteria with prospective employers. 

“We see the ‘Your Career Expo’, and the ‘JRA Great Places to Work pavilion’ in particular, as an outstanding opportunity for JRA to share the knowledge it has gained over 15 years analysing the attitudes and perceptions of New Zealand workers, and studying the characteristics of great workplaces” according to Managing Director, John Robertson.  “And the timing of the Expo couldn’t be better, given the surge in the interest organisations are showing in the concept of ‘engagement’, employment branding and beings seen an ‘employer of choice’”.

 Keep an eye out for JRA’s regular contribution to the Herald ‘Your Career Expo’ column over the next three months, and do come along to the workshops we will be running during the Expo itself when we will be revealing the secrets of New Zealand’s Best Places to Work!
