Keep it Cloudy: An Exclusive Mentoring Night with

Cloudreach x FindSpark

On Tuesday, September 18, 2018, FindSpark partnered with Cloudreach to plan and execute an exclusive networking event, “Keep it Cloudy: 
An Exclusive Mentoring Night with Cloudreach"
at Cloudreach’s headquarters in New York City.

 

Cloudreach was looking to build on its pipeline of diverse candidates who have 2-3+ years of work experience and are interested in working in the technology industry. Additionally, Cloudreach wanted to create a positive employer branding experience and provide a special learning opportunity to select high-potential members within the FindSpark community.

 

To create this event for FindSpark members and Cloudreach, the FindSpark team and I:

  • Handled the full screening of prospective event attendees, based on a pre-determined candidate profile by Cloudreach

  • Created an event web page featuring information about Cloudreach, event speakers and featured mentors, and the event attendee RSVP process: findspark.com/cloudreach-mentor-night

  • Promoted Cloudreach to FindSpark’s community of 30,000+ members and FindSpark Educator community of 6,000+ subscribers via email marketing campaigns

  • Published two dedicated branded blog articles featuring Cloudreach on FindSpark.com

  • Advertised the event on FindSpark’s Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn handles before, during and after the event

 

The Results: FindSpark reached its program goal of curating 30 event attendees, who connected with Cloudreach employees to learn more about working in the technology industry and careers in technology and non-technology based roles.

 

The event met/exceeded the expectations of 100% of the attendees.
