Give guidance for students to understand what opportunities are available in their proposed career. Hopefully, students will learn more about various roles and careers in Seattle, and gain a better understanding of how businesses operate and how Finance acts as a business partner.

As a mentor, I can support students in the following: 

- Resume review, interview prep, LinkedIn branding
- Career exploration, matching interests and talents with professions and industries
- Student transition from college to first professional role
- Improved communication and interpersonal skills
- Development of leadership skills, confidence, and executive presence
- Expanding a network, building connection, navigating an organization

 

When and where do you hold meetings with your students?

Hybrid meetings, either in my office, in the Amazon Spheres, or on zoom.
