Young Professional Forum 2011
Introduction
The objective of Young Professional Forum (YPF) is (1) to promote young Korean-American professionals who are currently working or will work in energy and medical/biotech related industries and research institutes and (2) to develop their career more successfully. It also provides an opportunity to build a career network with well-recognized senior engineers and scientists in this industry and research areas.
Within this event, a resume contest will be held to provide an opportunity to improve resume writing skill and provide feedback/advice from human resource managers in major corporations who will be invited to judge.
KSEA South Texas Chapter (KSEA-ST) has been co-hosted the "Young Professional Forum" together with Houston based Korean-American Offshore Engineers Association (KOEA) for past three years.
