Student & Alumni Speed Networking Night - Career Center
FOR UNDERGRADUATES ONLY. In networking, timing is critical--it's not
just about finding the right opportunity to discuss your skills, but being able
to interest someone else in your experience and capabilities in a short amount
of time. At the beginning of this event, undergraduate students are given a
primer on networking, and receive personal business cards. The students and
alumni are then brought together where students have three minutes to engage in
a conversation with a GW graduate. Then, students rotate on to a new
conversation with another alumnus/a, and so on. The event concludes with a
reception for students and alumni to reconnect, and for alumni to provide
feedback on students’ networking skills. Business attire required. RSVP
REQUIRED: Register through the GWork
calendar. Cosponsored with GW Alumni Association.
Time: 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Location: Alumni House @ 1918 F Street
