Furthermore, studies show that over two-thirds of all jobs are found through networking. WSU alumni serving as mentors represent a wide variety of academic disciplines and professional experience. They are interested in helping other Cougars succeed by sharing their time, insight and knowledge. Although the intention of this program is to facilitate informational interviews, you may communicate by any means you and your mentor decide upon. It could be a face to face interview, a phone conversation or an e-mail correspondence.
Some individuals are able to develop lasting professional relationships with their mentors.
Once you have registered with WSU Career Services , you can access a network of WSU alumni and friends who share their career experience as mentors to students and other alumni. When using the program it is vitally important that our students and alumni conduct themselves professionally and use the information made available to them in an ethical manor.
