Network With Alumni in Job Areas that Interest You.
Your career center will most likely
have a database of alumni who have already agreed to allow current students to contact
them for networking purposes.

career, and can lead to opportunities to establish relationships with the decision-makers
who might ultimately offer you a job at their company.
