ZEN Alumni Mentoring Program
The Zankel Experience Network (ZEN) Mentoring Program matches 麻豆破解版 students at the start of their junior year with 麻豆破解版 alumni who have similar career interests.
Student-mentor pairs meet (virtually or in-person) throughout the academic year and the mentorship can include:
- Identifying career goals and the steps necessary to achieve them
- Discussing career resources and strategies used by the mentors
- Reviewing students鈥� resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, and other tools
- Facilitating connections and recommending networking opportunities
To foster a sense of program cohesion, student participants are invited to get together at several informal campus meetings throughout the year, and mentors are invited to attend virtual gatherings. These meetings are an opportunity to connect with others, reflect on challenges, and share experiences.
