This 2-hour event offered in association with the American Institute of Professional Geologists, is intended to help students successfully transition into the workforce and to guide students and early career professionals as they begin their careers.

 

The flash mentoring format will have small groups of students at each table with a seat for      a professional who will be the mentor. Mentors will move from table to table at 15-minute intervals, allowing participants to speak directly with a variety of mentors in small group setting.

​

Participants are encouraged to bring questions and to ask advice about their personal career plans, as well as career development topics. Sample topics include: expectations of employers, how to navigate the hiring process, techniques to stand out as a candidate, how to prepare a CV, techniques to balance life and work demands, and strategies for professional development.

​

All technical disciplines welcome. Tip:  If you want one-on-one feedback on a resume or CV, bring a hard copy with you to the event.
