Mentor Network-Program Overview
The Mentor Network is about meeting alumni who do things that interest
your son/daughter. Whether they are exploring career options, looking for advice about
the job/internship search, or hunting for an apartment in a new area,
using the Mentor Network is a great way to get started.
The program consists of a database of SU alumni (over 800) who have
volunteered to share their career experiences and advice with students and
other alumni. All of these alums asked to be put into this database because
they want to talk to your son/daughter about their career fields and organizations--they
want to offer them insider advice about their career. These individuals
have diverse academic backgrounds and represent many industries, career
fields, job functions, and job locations. Alumni can act as a resource in
many ways, including the following examples:
- Provide
company information
- Outline
job duties
- Indicate
employment trends (profession or industry)
- Suggest
job search strategies
- Critique
resumes
- Set-up
a job shadowing appointment
- Give
networking tips
- Furnish
relocation information
