We want our AAF Nebraska student members to know that we are with you during this unprecedented time. We realize that the economic fallout of COVID-19 may have affected some of our student members, and now they may face the task of looking for new jobs and internship opportunities. AAF Nebraska members have offered to assist by providing feedback on resumes, cover letters and online portfolios!
If you would like to participate, please contact Teri Hamburger, Executive Director, at aafomaha.teri@gmail.com. We will connect you to an AAF Nebraska professional member willing to review your resume or portfolio.
