Wondering how the networking process works?
Check out the networking handout for tips.
The Office of Career Services offers several opportunities for students
to connect with professionals in their fields of interest:
- Make an appointment to be personally matched to alumni and
other professionals for a one-on-one conversation
Through the Career Resource Network of Hope alumni, you can begin to

and hear about other job shadow resources on campus.
