Know Before You Go: Career Fair Edition a success!

Graduate student showing younger students notes

A week before the Spring Career and Internship Fair, the ESF Women's Caucus and GSA hosted a casual, drop-in student advising session focused on careers and graduate school.  Undergraduate students from were invited for "honest conversations with grad students, practical advice, and food."  

Organizers shared "We no idea how many people to expect, or what topics to anticipate. Waves of undergrads showed up, almost all unsure what to ask or where to begin. 
"That so many grad students took the time to patiently talk them through to figure out those questions is an amazing testament to their collective care and consideration.  The number of undergrads that stopped in and stayed long after the pizza was gone says a lot, too, about their appreciation of the grads time and experience, and how much they needed a place to figure out what to ask."
