Newark, NJ – Aug 8 :
National Retail Solutions (NRS) welcomed approximately 30 local students to its corporate headquarters for an interactive career day event as part of the company's NRS Cares community initiative. The program provided young people with hands-on career exploration opportunities and direct access to company leadership.
The career day featured three engaging stations designed to give students practical skills and insights into professional development. Participants rotated through interactive workshops where they created personal vision boards, developed their first resumes, and received valuable career guidance from NRS executives, including CEO Elie Y. Katz, CFO Ashish Parikh, and Diana Stern, Vice President of Marketing.
"Hosting these motivated students at our headquarters was incredibly rewarding," said Elie Y. Katz, President & CEO of NRS. "Seeing their enthusiasm as they worked on vision boards and learned about different career paths reminded us all why investing in youth development is so important. These students brought fresh perspectives and energy that was truly inspiring for our entire team."
The structured program allowed students to gain real-world insights into corporate operations while developing essential professional skills. Each participant received giveaways and enjoyed lunch as part of the comprehensive career exploration experience.
"This career day was engaging and enlightening for everyone involved," said Victoria Wilkerson, Business Development & Outreach Specialist at NRS. "Our employees were energized by the students' curiosity and ambition, while the young people gained exposure to career possibilities they may not have previously considered. It's exactly the kind of meaningful community engagement that NRS Cares was designed to foster."
