Students typically support each other in many and substantial ways during the career development process. Student clubs, which cover a rich range of career and other common interests, are highly active at Michigan. Many clubs offer the accumulated insights of their members and alumni in the form of specialized job-search advice or interview preparation in areas like finance, consulting, and marketing. Michigan students also help each other on an informal basis. M-Track is an important tool for networking among students.
Alumni can also be a valuable resource.
The Business School has more than 29,000 alumni in virtually every kind of organization, and throughout the world. M-Track provides background and contact information for Business School alumni, and the School also publishes a directory of alumni. Students often get in touch with alumni for general information or networking. Students have also landed internships or jobs at companies that did not recruit on campus by initiating contact through an alumna or alumnus.
