Welcome back to campus, NJIT students!
Now that you’ve got the first semester of the academic year behind you, it’s time to hit the ground running and start seriously thinking about a summer internship or job placement. The NJIT Young Alumni Club (YAC) is here to help you along your journey in any way that we can.
To this end, YAC may host social events for the undergraduates or networking nights with alumni in collaboration with Career Development Services. We are here to help you through your undergraduate years as well as continue your professional development when you graduate.
As it was mentioned back in December, the YAC added a new, monthly feature called Ask the YAC to our weekly column in the NJIT Vector. Each month, we will select up to three questions posed by you, the NJIT student body, and share the answers here in our column.
The questions can be about any aspect of NJIT or your professional career as a whole. Some ideas include asking for help in a specific professional situation, seeking the best tips on what to ask in an interview, or the best practices while networking. The list of what you can ask us is endless!
Please submit your non-time-sensitive questions by February 3rd, 2015 to [email protected] for possible inclusion in a future NJIT Vector print. We will do our best to answer every question, but a maximum of three will be featured in our column. We look forward to hearing from you!
And as always, if you have any time-sensitive questions or comments, please feel free to email the YAC at [email protected]. Want to know more about the Young Alumni Club (YAC)? Visit www.njit.edu/alumni/clubs/youngalumni for more information!
