Please save this date: January 21st, 2015 • 6:00pm – 8:00pm
If you’ve ever wondered what the real tricks are to landing a STEM-based job in Seattle, look no further! You probably don’t need any “hot tips” or “lifehacks–” just a simple set of skills you can easily develop with a little bit of practice. For insider advice on where to start or how to make the best impression during your next job search, please join Seattle AWIS for ‘Nail the Next Interview: Secrets from Seattle Job Recruiters.’ Our distinguished panelists are:
Yvette Herrera Greer, PHR, global recruiting coordinator at PATH
Maya Skolnik, Senior Recruiter at NanoString Technologies, Inc.
Sherri Edwards, Career coach, trainer, and consultant at Resource Maximizer
Brook Filary, Manager and Human Resources Business Parter at Double Down Interactive / International Game Technology
Our panelists will discuss advice on interviews, how often to communicate, and how best to use social media for the job search, and current trends in the industry.

Volunteer for an AWIS Committee!
We invite you to share your ideas and talents and expand your network of colleagues by volunteering for an AWIS committee.
You can serve for an entire year or even just a single event or task! We especially invite you to join the Programming
Committee– this is one of the most active and exciting parts of our organization. All of our committees actively recruit
throughout the year to help generate new ideas and engage our members: this helps us create programming, special events,
and chapter tools that are tailored to our current, up-to-the-minute interests and recruit new members. We hope to see all of
our members take the opportunity to volunteer with a committee and more deeply engage our chapter. We can’t wait to work
with you! To find out more about volunteering, contact any of our committees below:Program: programs@seattleawis.

Seattle, WA 98105The Seattle AWIS scholarship program was launched in 1990 to provide financial assistance to undergraduate
women who are majoring in science, math or engineering fields at four-year colleges and universities in
Washington State. More than $175,000 in scholarships have been awarded since then. Scholarship recipients
are selected based on academic excellence, financial need, motivation to pursue a science-based career, and a
record of giving back to their communities. Many scholarship recipients have found that receiving an AWIS
scholarship is validating and gives them increased self-confidence to go for their dreams and goals and that this
support from a group of women whom they admire is as important as the financial support.
