Become a member of the ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Alumni Career Network and you can provide current students and alumni with the information they need to navigate their career path. You might help someone through a single, brief conversation or even become more involved in a long-term mentoring relationship. Some of the ways you can help as a member of the Alumni Career Network include:
- Providing information on general economic, operational and employment trends.
- Providing regional information on cost of living, points of interest and community organizations.
- Sharing information about your own career and suggesting ways students and alumni can break into a particular field.
- Offering a day of shadowing for our Career Connections program.
- Post opportunities within your organization to the platform.
Participate in Career Connections
Career Connections is typically held during spring break and provides ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ first year students the opportunity to shadow alumni in the student's career and geographic area of interest. If you are interested in hosting a Career Connections student, please contact our Assistant Director for Alumni Engagement, Marcos Rivera at: marcos.rivera2@case.edu
Be Our Guest
Students consistently tell us the presence of an alum at our events and programs provides a valuable perspective. Have you considered sharing your knowledge and expertise? Most alumni choose to get involved through one or more of the following activities:
- Serve as a guest speaker on a panel.
- Lead a career workshop or presentation.
- Provide details on open positions within your organization.
Contact Marcos Rivera if you have an idea or would like to arrange a volunteer opportunity.
