Community Roundtables
Last year, the Young Professionals Council held roundtables with HR professionals and diversity directors to find out what issues they were facing recruiting and retaining young professionals.
Now its time to hear the other side of the story....from young professionals. The Council is looking for career-oriented individuals, under 40-years-old, who are interested in providing creative ideas about recruitment and retention.
Join a confidential roundtable discussion where we can learn how the Chamber and Omaha businesses can help make our city the place young professionals want to be.
Plan on attending one of two roundtable sessions to share your
thoughts. First drink is free.
