Career Programs

Our office has developed a series of campus wide initiatives to help you prepare and connect to employers.  These programs are open to all students and are a great way for you to meet alumni and employers, tour potential work environments, and further develop your “career brand”.

Career Meet Ups

These 30-45 minute sessions typically consist of 10-15 minutes of content and 10-15 minutes of Q&A. Meet-Ups come in two forms –
 

  • Industry Focused – providing you with key information about particular sectors, companies, and job functions.  Typically facilitated by professionals from industry.
  • Career Brand Focused – providing you with specific assistance around common topics relating to resumes, interviewing, salary negotiation, job/internship search, and a variety of other areas to support your career growth.
