ALUMNAE INTERNSHIP
NETWORKING CONNECTIONS networking
(INC) EVENT 2020
THE COR JESU CORPORATE PARTNERS INITIATIVE IS UNIQUE IN THE FACT THAT CJ
STUDENTS CONTINUE TO BENEFIT FROM PROGRAMS EVEN AFTER THEY GRADUATE.
On January 7, Cor Jesu hosted its fourth Internship Networking
Connections (INC) event where college-aged CJ alumnae and recent
college graduates are invited to network with a variety of companies
and organizations who are seeking candidates for internships and
permanent entry-level positions. Alumnae are also offered one-on-
one professional coaching, resume building tips and complimentary
professional headshots at this event.
This year, nearly 100 CJ alumnae attended the event, networking
with 28 companies that were seeking to fill roles in accounting,
architecture, engineering, healthcare, law, marketing, non-profit and
more. Keynote speaker Ilana Austin, an executive recruiter at Square,
gave attendees her top three pieces of advice to job applicants:
1) Proofread applications and resumes carefully
2) Remember to write a thank you note
or e-mail after an interview
3) Ask for the job
A special thank you to Slalom CORPORATE PARTNERS INITIATIVE
