One of the most important initial steps in starting the career-exploration process is finding a career advisor. Each family contains students from all four classes and 2-3 faculty members. Even if the faculty in your family are not in a field you think you are interested in, you might learn quite a bit from talking to them and they will likely be able to point you in the right direction for more specific advising. The SOM maintains a list of faculty in each department who have volunteered to advise students.
Confidential advisors have no affiliation with residency selection committees.
