What is NPEC? • NPEC is the new essential in finding the perfect career fit. • NPEC promises to help students, employers, and career professionals make connections with educational and employment opportunities.
The Competition • Local classifieds/JobFinder • Bulky and must be purchased. • Low student audience. • Can be hard to find the right fit. • Monster.com • Too broad of a database. • Listings can be unreliable.
What does NPEC look like? • NPEC is professional, strong, and innovative. • It reaches many audiences. • Our new logo shows these qualities.
The Tagline • “Find your fit.” • The word “fit” is very important • It indicates a sense of belonging, invoking the phrase “fitting in” • It also is a phrase commonly used by job seekers, human resource managers, and career counselors, who are all looking for the right career fit.
The Plan • We will be introducing NPEC to potential clients through eye-catching and sometimes unconventional means of advertising. • For students: Guerilla Tactics and Social Networking Sites • For employers: Special deals, VIP access, unique direct mailing. • For career professionals: Contests, unique direct mailing.
