You may have noticed that we have some new occupants in the office across the hall from Collaboration 2 (Rm 234). This is our Employer Relations Team. The folks occupying those offices are part of the Office of Professional Development. We moved them to this new location to give them more visibility. The Employer Relations Team talks with our corporate partners and area coordinators about their employment and internship opportunities and can help connect you to people who can jump-start your career. You’ve heard the old saying, its not just what you know, but who you know that counts. Getting to know these people counts.
If you have been admitted into a major, have a polished resume and are ready to seek internships or career opportunities, make an appointment to meet with one of the members of the team. They will help you assess your readiness to compete in the market for jobs or internships, get a sense of your skill sets and interests and tell you about current job openings and opportunities our corporate partners have in the works. By taking the time to build a relationship with one of the team members, they are better able to target and recommend opportunities to you as they arise. Landing the job or internship is up to you, but it never hurts to have well connected people in your corner.
