Each year, students join alumni and area employers for Network Washington. The 24th Annual Network Washington continues that tradition.
The after-work reception is an opportunity to meet new people, reconnect with old friends and to share Carnegie Mellon and post graduation experiences.
The reception attracts students and alumni of Carnegie Mellon’s seven colleges and interdisciplinary programs as well as employers with internship and full time positions.
In preparation for the reception, students, alumni and employers may connect with each other via LinkedIn. Alumni and students may use the Carnegie Mellon Alumni LinkedIn Group. Non-alumni may also connect with students and alumni through LinkedIn. Look for those willing to be contacted via LinkedIn on the Attending Organizations page.
The $15 on-line registration cost includes appetizers and refreshments. On-site registration is $20. Non-profit and government employers attend without charge.
A Poster Session will precede Network Washington again this year. The Poster Session provides a more formalized setting for employers and students to represent themselves to one another. Job seekers should plan to bring resumes to this session.
Alumni, employers and students are asked to RSVP by Monday, March 3.
