The Fannie Mitchell Career Conference is an annual event designed for students of all ages who are interested in learning about the wide variety of career options available to them after Duke.
100 Duke Alumni Panelists host sessions, answer questions, and make themselves available to students for networking and mentoring purposes. No resume required – this is a casual event for students to come as they are and leave inspired.
The conference will
• Showcase the myriad of career choices Duke graduates make and encourage career exploration
• Give students an opportunity to ask questions and get open, honest responses
• Connect students with alumni, faculty, and staff for help with many aspects of their initial career search
Should you attend?
Undergraduates and graduate students of all years are strongly encouraged to attend. Recent alumni may also find the conference helpful. Attend if you simply want to know about options available after graduation; if you want to hear the stories of challenges and triumphs; or want to practice the networking skills necessary to a successful internship or job search.
How do students register?
Student registration will begin Monday, December 29, 2008.
Your confirmation e-mail will give you the opportunity to change, cancel, or add to your registration.
**Due to extraordinary student response last year, we want to emphasize the importance of updating your registration if your plans change so that another student may attend.
