Sponsors

Join us in nostalgic Fort Worth, Texas, from September 22–25, 2010, for the 13th annual conference of The National Résumé Writers’ Association – the best conference in the industry.

Your participation will allow you to reach over 500 people—both through the NRWA website and at the conference. The conference will be attended by more than 150 résumé writers and career professionals, some of whom are considered the top in their field. Most are entrepreneurs and small business owners with the balance coming from universities and government agencies.

We have world-renowned speakers, published authors, and subject-matter experts who will speak on new approaches, innovative methods, and current trends in the career industry. You can be a part of this, too. Make sure you are there to connect with industry leaders, as well as those new to the profession. Our attendees love to visit the vendor booths to learn about new products and services as well as ways they can build their businesses.

We create visibility and a great opportunity for sponsors and exhibitors to connect with our members at an Opening Cocktail Reception Event on the evening of the 22nd, which will take place in the exhibit area. We have generous breaks throughout the conference for members to peruse the tables, and we showcase our sponsors in numerous ways. This year, we are offering an extra incentive for our members to stop and visit with every exhibitor via a prize-packed raffle drawing for those who get a stamp from every booth.
