April 6 | Alumni Mentoring Roundtable

Thursday, April 6, 2017
6:00-8:00 p.m.
Kelly Skylight Room, 9100, Graduate Center

When it comes to the job hunt, it’s often not what you know, it’s who. Our GC alum find great jobs inside and outside the academy. These are people you should know. On April 6th, you can meet nine of them at our Alumni Mentoring Roundtable.

Attend and you’ll have an opportunity to ask alumni working in an array of fields about how they started out in their career, get tips about how you might do the same, and find out what they like and find challenging about the jobs they now hold.Group discussions will be small, informal, and interactive. You’ll be paired with potential mentors in three rotating groups of four to six students, with each discussion lasting 20-25 minutes, giving you a chance to chat with alum from three different fields. The last 30 minutes will be an open networking session.

Sign up to attend using this link. Please indicate the three mentors you’d like to meet with in order of preference. (Alumni mentors are listed below.)

We do hope to see you there.
