Our Philosophy
One-on-One Coaching
Our approach is student centered, career focused, and market driven. Career coaches partner with you so that you are self-aware and market-ready as you create your career path, offering a variety of services to support you in your internship and job searches.
Some of the services offered include:
- Assessment feedback
- Resume development and critique
- Job strategy development
- Cover letter development and critique
- Networking and research advice
- Interview preparation and mock interviews
- Salary negotiation advice
Once you have completed your resume and job search plan with your career coach, we will refer you to our colleagues at the Feld Career Center (FCC) so you can partner with the Industry Relations team on your internship and/or job search. Five industry relations managers with different industry focus and one West Coast lead complement the career coaching services as follows:
- Briefings on specific company culture, recruiting history, and interview tips
- Industry-themed career exploration events
- Job and internship postings, information sessions, and interview schedules (On-Campus Recruiting)
- Calendar of monthly on-campus career-related activities
Small Group Workshops
During the year, the career coaching team hosts workshops that are typically composed of 5-15 students in an interactive setting. Our workshops use a hands-on, “learning by doing” approach by incorporating activities into the one and a half hour sessions. We help students to build on career development skillsets such as mastering interviewing, resume and cover letter writing, and project managing your internship search.
Career Classes
The career coaching team provides large group sessions for 1st and 2nd year MBA students through the ES723 course. These classes are designed to cover a wide variety of career-related topics such as developing your 30-second commercial elevator pitch and getting the most out of your summer internship experience.
