Your responsibility:
Read five student profiles a week. Over the course of the seven week program (January 16 - February 27), we'll email you five unique profiles from your chosen career category/ies. Simply scan the email to see if you have any advice, contacts/referrals, or opportunities to offer the students featured. If you choose, you may also log into a database that includes all student participants in the program sorted by career category.

Connect any way you can. You need only contact students with whom you find a connection. Your level of involvement is up to you. For example, you may help students by providing:
- Insight into a career field
- Information on relocating to a new city (eg. affordable housing, best neighborhoods, etc.)
- Job shadowing opportunities
- Advice on how to get a position in a specific company or organization
- Referrals to people in your network
- Insight into certain graduate school programs
- Knowledge of research opportunities, internships and/or jobs
- Insight on living and working abroad
The possibilities are endless. Any type of help is welcome!
