World Dairy Expo® is proud to offer opportunities for youth interested in the dairy industry to develop their professional skills and network throughout the annual event in Madison, Wisconsin. Career Connections is the newest tool from Expo to connect students and young professionals with job and internship opportunities in the dairy industry.
“Career Connections gives youth and young adults a chance to take their job or internship search to the next level,” says Cassi Miller, WDE Youth & International Specialist. “World Dairy Expo provides the perfect time and place to connect job and internship seekers with hiring companies and farms as the global dairy industry meets at Expo.”
