Volunteer to Hire - Chris Huang's Career Starts From Volunteering for CGCC-Chicago
Sometimes an untended willow grows. Participating in the voluntary work of CGCC Chicago 2022 Annual Gala is something that brings me an unexpected harvest. From the working assignment and training of volunteers, seating arrangement in the early stage, to onsite set-up and management, as well as the subsequent work summary, not only have I further honed my skills in implementing event plans and solving various onsite problems through these works, but also I’ve got the chance to meet with employers from diverse industries and fully demonstrated my ability in communication and multitasking. It was through this stage that I was able to showcase my abilities to the member companies of CGCC Chicago and was fortunate enough to be recognized by the chair company Wanxiang America Corporation, where I eventually joined and became part of the team. I hereby would like to invite all of you to participate in the following events held by CGCC Chicago and contribute to enhancing Sino-US communication and cooperation.
我很荣幸能参与美国中国总商会芝加哥2022年年会的志愿服务工作，从前期的志愿者分工及培训、晚宴坐席安排、物资准备，到活动当日的会场布置、志愿者管理，再到后续的工作总结、感谢信发送等，通过这些工作我不仅进一步锻炼了大型活动的组织策划及临场应变能力，同时也通过商会所搭建的平台结识了诸多来自各行各业的企业负责人，并借此充分展现了我在沟通交流及多任务处理方面的能力。正是通过商会所提供的舞台，我才能有机会向商会各会员单位展示自己的工作能力，并有幸获得了会长单位万向集团的赏识，最终加入其中成为了万向的一员。在此，我也邀请大家共同参与到美国中国总商会芝加哥所举办的后续活动中，为促进中美交往合作贡献自己的一份力！
