[Spa-L] FW: Top 3 (data driven) reasons to have your students attend The Placement Exchange!

[Horton, David]

Greetings,

Early-bird ends tomorrow, so it's time to make your travel plans for The Placement Exchange 2012<http://www.theplacementexchange.org/event>. Why join all your closet student affairs friends in Phoenix? Put simply, with The Placement Exchange you have the best chance of finding the job you want...and we have the data to prove it. Since everyone in higher education is talking about making decisions from assessment information here are real numbers to help guide your choice.

The TOP THREE (data-driven) reasons to come to TPE

3)   You want a job! TPE is where the jobs are. Check out these amazing numbers:


*         Over 220 available positions (141 postings) for TPE Phoenix;

*         Over 11,000 interviews took place at TPE Philly;

*         Over 1,200 hiring employers were in attendance;

*         Over 500 job postings at TPE Philly, representing hundreds more actual positions;

*         Even though most student affairs entry jobs are housing, over 25% of postings at TPE are non-reslife positions, thanks to our unique professional association co-sponsorships<http://www.theplacementexchange.org/about/index.cfm>.


2)   TPE TAKES CARE OF YOU - Job searching isn't easy yet over 94% of candidates recommend TPE for other candidates. Even with all the excitement, TPE maintains a focus on you the candidate with features (like quiet spaces, smaller interview areas, and wireless just to name a few) that maintain an intimate feel and keep the experience from being overwhelming.

And the surprising number one reason you should come to Phoenix?


1)       A remarkable 98% of attending employers recommend TPE.  By treating universities right, they pick TPE year after year. Position postings for the 2012 conference already on par with last year's event so don't miss out!

Over 150 signed up for the TPE webinar on "Beginning Your Job Search<https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/574983786>" and you can check that out right now (not to mention the complimentary resume review<http://www.theplacementexchange.org/candidates/u/resources/resreview.cfm> once you sign up<http://www.theplacementexchange.org/candidates/u/login/index.cfm?m=2>).  At just $89 to register, TPE is, to quote several assessment responses, "the best bang for the buck!" If you have questions we are more than happy to help. Contact us<http://www.theplacementexchange.org/about/contact.cfm>!
See you in Phoenix,

Chair, The Placement Exchange 2012

P.S. Quick Travel Tips: Book early! Check airlines not on the big search pages cheaper deals (still under $299 roundtrip on Southwest and Jetblue and American) and use our roommate matcher<http://www.naspa.org/conf/hotels/roommate.cfm>  to split the hotel.

P.S.S. Average temperature in March is 77 degrees.  Pack the shades and come on down!
