Back to School
Happy first week of class! Wishing all my fellow Fisher classmates a great first week. It's been two years since I've been in any kind of classroom setting, so needless to say, I am ready to hit the ground running. I think the fall is one of the best times of year because students are filled with such excitement, energy, and enthusiasm.
As a first year Master of Human Resource Management (MHRM) student, I am eager to begin the internship search for next summer, and have had my eye on a few of the companies coming to campus for fall recruiting. Because the internship or practicum is part of the MHRM curriculum, most MHRM students do the 12-week internship during the summer between their first and second year. Fisher does a great job of helping students obtain internships and full-time positions at their target companies and the Office of Career Management is a great resource. I especially encourage first-year MHRM students to take advantage.
I am fortunate to have a graduate assistantship (GA) this year in the Office of Career Management, and although I primarily work with undergraduate students, I've been able to see firsthand the great work being done in this office.
Here is a photo of the team during my first day of GA training.
Two of the other women pictured here are also in my first-year MHRM cohort. It's been great having them as a support system if I have any questions about classes or assignments. I've had so much fun getting to know these women through all of our trainings and orientations, and look forward to working with them throughout the year.
Here's to wishing everyone a fantastic start to the new school year.
