The Daily Bruin

Guess what? The registration for the IDEA Center’s first networking event of the year is now open! We have invited a group of 15 intriguing alumni professionals to campus that will each host a table at this round-robin event. It will take place Friday, Oct. 8, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. in Canyon Commons.

For 10 minutes, professionals will share about their career journey, as well as any advice they wish they knew when they were college students at George Fox. Students will have the opportunity to ask any questions regarding the alumni’s career of choice or education path.

Every 10 minutes students will move to a new table with a new professional. For the final 20 minutes of the event, all students will have the chance to connect with our guests in a traditional mixer-type format.

We will be hosting alumni from the following industries: HR and recruiting, education, healthcare, technology, start-ups, government, nonprofit work, marketing, event planning, athletics, ministry, and so much more!

The undergrad degrees they received from George Fox University include accounting, finance, engineering, cognitive science, biology, organizational communication, marketing, family and consumer sciences, Christian ministries, business administration, and psychology.

Registration opens today (Monday) on Handshake! When it opens, log into your Handshake account, click “Events” in the top left corner, then scroll down to find the selection “#CAREERGOALS: A Career Exploration Event”, hosted by George Fox University. By clicking on that title, you will be given the opportunity to sign up for the event.

Don’t miss out on this amazing networking opportunity! We hope to see you there!
