Hubbell Galvanizing sponsored an exhibit at Manufacturing Day at the Jorgensen
Athletic and Events Center at Mohawk Valley Community College. The event
was put on by SUNY Polytechnic Institute, Advanced Institute for Manufacturing
(AIM) on October 18th.
Attendees to the event ranged from middle
school, high school, and college students as well as job seekers. We were very
impressed and encouraged by the questions the students asked as they came
through the exhibit. For example, how did you decide to get in to
manufacturing? Tell me about the products your company makes? Do you have a
social media presence? What are some careers that are available through your
company? What are the environmental impacts on your company’s products?
Jack
Mulvihill, Alexandra Semeraro, Frank Gerace, Diane Weekes, and Kerie Albano
represented the companies at the Career Exploration Fair. It was a great chance
to educate the community about our companies, the products we manufacture,
steel fabrication, signs and structures, the galvanizing process and powder
coating as well as career opportunities. We look forward to participating in
next year’s event!
