Alumni Networking

Communicating with fellow alumni can be an effective way to learn about other career fields. The power of networking should not be underestimated. You can gain valuable, resourceful information by speaking to those who are working in the career field that interests you. People enjoy sharing information about their profession, especially with those they feel a connection to-such as fellow alumni.

One way to begin the process is to take advantage of the Yale Career Network. This database was developed to provide alumni with the opportunity to connect with one another-to share information, seek advice, and ask questions of one another. Similarly, you may also contribute to the network by participating and sharing your information, expertise, and perspective. This database is searchable by a number of fields such as industry, company, geography, and class year. Whether you are looking to redesign your professional future, explore options, or gain information, networking with fellow alumni can help you define your goals.
