DCNY - It's Not What You Know....It's Who You Know

Are you starting to think seriously about what you are going to do after life at Duke?  Is this a time of confusion because many of your friends and fellow students are starting or planning to meet with recruiters from large management consulting and financial firms, but you have no interest in these fields?

We have several upcoming opportunities for you to attend an event where you can gain access all at once to a larger number of alumni in your field of interest and have many of your career questions answered by them in person!  Not only will you hear from these alums about their current jobs, but you will have a chance to learn about resources for job hunting and networking in your field and have time to network one-on-one with alumni in these fields.
