2017 MiLB FIELD Program - Still Time to Apply!
The Minor League Baseball (MiLB) ‘Fostering
Inclusion through Education and Leadership Development’ (FIELD) Program
is now accepting application for the class of 2017!
Dates: August 7 – 11, 2017
Location: Minor League Baseball Headquarters (St. Petersburg, Florida)
Cost: $250 plus cost of travel
Where to Apply: https://diversity.milb.net/ field_program.aspx
Deadline to Apply: March 31, 2017
Last
summer, Minor League Baseball hosted 25 students from 7 different
colleges and universities during a week-long program designed to
introduce students to the game and business of baseball. Last year’s
group participated in group projects, professional development sessions
focused on sales training and resume building in addition to hearing
from a number of industry executives who instantly became a part of
their network. We visited McKechnie Field to watch the Bradenton
Marauders during an evening of leisure and shadowed the staff at
Spectrum Field to get a first-hand experience at what it’s like working
in Minor League Baseball. Every department in our office made
presentations to the group so that the role of central headquarters was
clear, and Michael Hill, President of Baseball Operations for the Miami
Marlins, made the keynote presentation.
After
spending the week in St. Petersburg, Florida, students were paired with
mentors in the industry who would assist with their preparation for the
2016 PBEO Job Fair at the Baseball Winter Meetings. 23 of the 25
students who participated in the FIELD Program attended the Baseball
Winter Meetings. Their experience yielded 60 interviews and 24 job offers!
We
are very excited to be bringing this program back and hope that
students from your institution are interested in participating! If you
would like more information on the program, please visit our web page (https://diversity.milb.net/ field_program.aspx) and feel free to reach out to me directly.
Best,

Many students and graduates say that they get more out of the job fair by attending with a friend. So far we have 38 PSNK students and graduates pre-registered... so why not have your friends register and come too! (MUST pre-register by MIDNIGHT MONDAY to attend for FREE). After
that time they can still attend but will need to pay the walk-in fee of
$10 CASH. All registration fees are collected at the door. Cash only.
Times: The times of the event are 10 AM - 3 PM. Although you do not need to be there for that full time, you should do some preparation to make the most of the time you are able to spend there. I recommend that you arrive as early as possible for the best opportunities to talk with the employers. When you arrive at the fair, check in at “Pre-registered Student Registration” according to your last name where you will pick up your nametag and other materials.
There will be three employer representatives presenting workshops at the fair:
Workshop Presentation Schedule at the Fair:
9:30 - 10:00 a.m. - "How to Make the Most of the Fair"
10:15 – 11:15 a.m. - "Applying for Government Employment through USA Jobs"

Resumes: You also must have a resume to enter the fair. For resume help, come to Career Services and see resume tips and examples at our Resumes webpage. Please review the WestPACS website for other entrance requirements.
Dress: And a final reminder: this is a "dress up" event -- plan to dress as if you were going to an interview – NOT for a night out at a club! Professional business attire is the most appropriate (err on the side of being conservative). Also, DO NOT be too casual. No jeans, t-shirts, flip-flops or sweatshirts permitted. See the attachments for some "dress for interview success.”
