Thoughtful Career Advice for Penn Students and Alumni, written by the staff of the University of Pennsylvania Career Services office and selected special guests.
Next week marks a first for Career Services – summer internship recruiting for select industries will begin in the fall! Michael and Mylène are joined by On Campus Recruiting Managers Marlene Cohen and Debra Smiley Koita to discuss why this change was made, what students should expect from the process and how you can participate in OCR while studying abroad. All that, plus the usual rundown of this week’s events.
Enjoy!
This week we’re pleased to welcome Esther Ra to the studio. Esther is a new part-time counselor here in Career Services, working with students in the School of Nursing, the Graduate School of Education and the school of Social Policy and Practice. Esther is going to talk about some of the services we offer students in SP2 and highlight two upcoming events for that audience. Mylène and Michael also discuss some important changes coming to PennLink for alumni users – it’s big announcement, so tune in! All that, plus the usual run down of the week’s events.

Welcome to Season Two of CS RADIO! Your hosts A. Mylène Kerschner and J. Michael DeAngelis are back to guide you through everything that is new and happening at the University of Pennsylvania Career Services office. After a busy start to the semester, we can’t believe it’s already October, but there’s plenty to talk about.

It’s our last episode of the season! Getting ready to start a new summer internship? J. Michael DeAngelis and A. Mylène Kerschner review some “best practices” that will ensure you make a good impression at your workplace and create lasting value for your experience. We also make a plea to current Penn students to fill out their career plans and/or summer surveys and run down the last of this semester’s programming. Finally, and with a heavy heart, we bid goodbye to our producer/editor/mixer, Ann Mollin, who is off to big and better things and we wish her the best! We’ll be taking the summer off, but look forward to our second season in September. Thank you for listening!

It’s the penultimate episode of the season and we’re encouraging you all to stay home! This week, Mylène and Michael explore the many Career Services resources available to Penn students and alumni online. There’s so much you can do from home – including researching employers and industries, taking a self-assessment, reviewing sample resumes, and more. Plus, there’s still lots of events on the calendar this week, especially for sophomores and juniors who will be using OCR when school resumes in the fall. Get a leg up on next year’s job search now!
