Has it really almost been 2 months since I started? – OMG…what a blogging delinquent I have been. TONS has happened since I joined the SAIT recruitment team on September 14th!
I’ve seen much more of Alberta than I thought was possible in such a short span of time. The road’s been good to me so far though and I’ve met a lot of great people on my travels.
Here’s a list of the top 10 most memorable things I’ve experienced in my first 64 days as a SAIT Recruiter:
1. Surviving the SCARIEST (no joke) eight hour drive of my life from Grande Prairie to Calgary in the first blizzard of the fall.
2. Losing my GPS and having to learn how to read a map again;)
3. Attending SAIT’s fall Open House – what a great way to learn about all that we do here at SAIT. Don’t miss the next one, Feb. 5th and 6th!
4. Actually being able to memorize most of the programs that we offer at SAIT – with names like Medical Radiologic Technology and Object Oriented Software Developer, this is no small feat.
5. Getting to meet some pretty amazing students from all over Alberta – from Oyen to Whitecourt and everywhere in between - your sense of humor and curiosity are what makes this job so fun.
6. Going to the wrong school and showing up 5 minutes late to an event COVERED in mud on a rainy night in Drumheller, AB.
7. Volunteering with Jason for SAIT’s Family Fun Day to raise awareness about the new Trades and Technology Complex – the most memorable part being the scary, mask-wearing, whip-like ribbon brandishing, stilt walkers (who were surprisingly a HIT with the kids!)
8. Enjoying regular laughs with the hilarious bunch in my office :)
9. Visiting Nickleback’s High school in Hanna, Alberta!
10. Sitting in my hotel on Remembrance Day and realizing how lucky we all are to live in such a wonderful country where we have some pretty amazing opportunities – thanks to those who made it possible!
Thanks for reading!
