Happy Wednesday!

Thank you all for joining us for our meeting this past Monday. We hope you enjoyed hearing from Kayon Ellis all about John Hancock, how they are trying to grow and diversify as a company, and the amazing internship and career opportunities they have available. Her crash course on how to network was so helpful so be sure to watch the meeting back if you missed it!

Our next meeting will be held on Monday, October 2nd at 7 pm in Flavin Auditorium. We will be hosting Laurie Lynch from TJX companies (T.J.Maxx, Marshalls, etc.) to talk about merchandising and all the opportunities they have for UMass students. This meeting is always one of our favorites, so please join us!
