piVot2 (p2), entertainment industry design/build sector's heart-hunting recruiter, has announced its exclusive sponsorship of the USITT 62nd Annual Conference & Stage Expo's updated Employment Portal.

Founder|CE Irene Byrne Ohl states, "I have been a huge admirer of the platform since it was launched in 2017. Sponsoring the portal is a harmonious match with p2's mission. The anticipated user-friendly upgrades will benefit employers and registrants alike."

“I am excited to have partners like piVot2 join us in an effort to get our members, friends and colleagues back to work. Having piVot2 join us as our recruitment sponsor expands the career opportunities for the current and future generations of technical theatre professionals,” said David Grindle, Executive Director.

When attendees register for the Employment Portal, they will be offered two deeply discounted p2 one-on-one consulting packages: Personal Branding or Trade Show Job Search Prep 101. These show specials will build registrants' LinkedIn Power Profiles (LIPs), resumes, trade show floor navigation skills and winning interview techniques. The packages are based on p2's successful collaborations with technical theatre programs across the US, making this years' show a unique way to stand out in the Employment Portal. A limited number of post-show packages will be available.

"Irene took the time to get to know my professional goals and mentor me while I was still in graduate school", states Collin Huse, theatre consultant, Nextstage Design (FSU|MFA). "Her personal approach to my job search connected me to an excellent company where I felt at home immediately both personally and professionally. I would never have found this opportunity without Irene's vast network, strong communication skills and her expertise in connecting like-minded individuals."
