Women’s Industry Network to reveal new recruiting poster at NACE

Leesburg,Virginia — October 14, 2013 — Women’s Industry Network (WIN) has announced the selection of the top nine photos submitted to the Faces & Places Photo Challenge. The selected photos will appear in the There’s A Place For You poster, created in collaboration with Collision Repair Education Foundation (CREF), being distributed to over 1100 technical schools and colleges later this fall. The poster will be revealed for the first time at NACE, taking place October 16 to 18 in Las Vegas, Nev.

The goal of the photo contest was to depict, in photographs, the diversity of roles the collision repair industry has to offer young women as they continue their education and enter the work force.  Photos appearing in the poster reflect positions as paint technician, insurance estimator, body technician, research & development, marketing, chemical technician, glass repair technician and industry retail. Selections were based on photo quality, clarity and how well each photo depicted a particular role.

The There’s A Place For You poster will be available at the WIN booth (#1852) in exchange for a $20 donation to the WIN Scholarship fund (while supplies last). 

Winning photos include:

-    Sarah Venus, R & D Intern at Sherwin Williams, submitted by Jill Vento

In addition, the winner of the 2014 WIN Educational Conference registration, selected by random drawing among all those submitting photos, is Kimberly Parson, President of Automotive Collision Technologies. The Conference will be held May 5 to 7, 2014 at Paradise Point in San Diego, California.
