The BEE Connection
How the Program Works:
An alumnus or friend of the university
signs up online and will be put into an online
database. By
filling out the form the alumnus or friend of the university is NOT guaranteed
that they will be contacted. Students can search the database
by city, state, vocation, major, metro area, or name to find an individual who
can answer their career related question. The
student will then e-mail the individual to ask a career related question i.e.
request a job shadow/informational interview, ask how they got started in their field, gather relocation information, request a resume critique, etc.
It may be as simple as the student asking one question or there may be a
connection and a long-term relationship will form. It is up to the student
and alumni/friend of the university to decide.
