Why should I participate?
• You will foster a professional connection with a Jackson School alum working in a role aligned with your interests.

• You will have the opportunity to discuss your career exploration and preparation with an alum while receiving personalized feedback and insights throughout the process.

• You will have the opportunity to explore your career paths of interest and learn from alums about other professional directions and opportunities.
What is required of me as a student participant?
• Communicate what you hope to gain from the conversation. Let the alum know if you're seeking specific advice, such as resume feedback, guidance on graduate school applications, or insights into their industry and career path. This will help the alumni tailor their advice and make the meeting more productive for both of you. You should identify future dates/times to meet if you decide to meet again. Meetings can take place in person, over the phone, or virtually.

• Arrive to the conversation prepared and ready to discuss/ask questions.

• Demonstrate continued interest in the program by arriving to meetings on time, responding to questions or requests from alumni, and following through on commitments.

• Your feedback is vital to the Jackson School Career Services Team as we strive to continuously enhance the program. To support this effort, you’ll be asked to complete an End of Program Experience survey, which plays a key role in the program’s ongoing success.
