THEME WEEK: fair trade weekFair trade organizations cultivate partnerships with their suppliers and contribute to the development of communities. Fair trade is not about charity; it uses a fairer system of exchange to empower producers and to create sustainable, positive change.  Fair Trade looks to create tremendous, positive, and long-term impact for artisans and farmers while delivering great products to the public. When consumers choose high quality and affordable clothing, coffee, food, furniture, home décor, house wares, jewelry, tea, toys, personal accessories, and many other products from Fair Trade Organizations, children’s school fees are paid; nutritional needs met; health care costs are covered; the poor - especially women - are empowered; the environmental impact of production, sourcing, and transport is mitigated to the fullest extent possible; and, much more.  To find out more and to see where to purchase fair trade items, visit fairtradefederation.org.

THIS WEEK’S

Tips for

Success

Setting yourself up for success in your career…

NBC President and Cal Poly alumna Vivi Zigler chatted with the Mustang Daily (4/21/10) and is offering her words of wisdom…

• Be honest and don’t sell yourself short• Don’t have the attitude that you are too cool to be interested in a job

– the next person will be excited about the job and get it• Ask your interviewer questions – curiosity tells them that you have

thought about what the job entails• Broaden your abilities. It is now better to have breadth rather than

depth. If you have a wider variety of skills you are a more versatile job prospect.
