Community

Networking Events

Most opportunities move through people rather than job boards. SHABELLE organizes and supports events that put the right people in the same room.

What we organize

The kinds of events we run

Each of these does something specific. If you are not sure which one fits your situation, ask and we will point you to the right one.

Hiring events

Bringing employers and candidates into the same room so they can meet directly, rather than filtering everyone through an application portal.

For employers and job seekers

B2B networking

Connecting business owners with other businesses: suppliers, partners, peers and potential customers in related fields.

For small businesses and organizations

Enrollment

Sessions where people exploring education and training can get their questions answered directly.

For students and families

Professional meetings

Smaller gatherings around a specific field, transition or question people are working through.

For professionals and early-career people

Public speaking

Opportunities to present, practice speaking in front of a group, and build the confidence that carries into work.

For youth and young adults

Booth participation

A presence at an event, for organizations that want direct contact with the people attending.

For organizations and businesses

Booth opportunities

Have a presence at an event

A booth puts your organization in direct contact with the people attending: candidates at a hiring event, potential customers at a business gathering, students and families at an enrollment session.

Tell us what kind of contact you are looking for and we will tell you what is coming up and what participation involves.

People talking together during a community meeting or event session

Event dates, venues and booth details are confirmed per event. We publish nothing here that has not been scheduled, so the best way to find out what is available is to ask.
