My favorite hands-on experience in sport business so far has been working at the Sport Sales Workshop in Cleveland. I wasn’t a student participant, but instead a volunteer where I assisted with various tasks throughout the event. I am interested in event operations, so this was a great opportunity to get a feel for what that career might be like. I was also was very fortunate to meet many inspirational individuals within the sport business industry.
Testimonials
"Since my initial participation in the second annual Sport Sales Workshop and Job Fair, this is by far one of my favorite events to attend to recruit for Ticket Sales Representatives. The high caliber students from a variety of colleges and universities, and the outstanding group of sport sales professionals representing all facets of the professional and collegiate sports landscape, makes this an outstanding event. It is a great opportunity for soon-to-be graduates as well as underclassman to receive exceptional sales training, network, ask questions, and be interviewed for entry level sales positions, seasonal positions and internships.
Orlando Magic is proud to be part of the Sport Sales Workshop and Job Fair."
