As a student at Georgia Southern, there was a lot of pathways for myself, I started off initially, as a Sport Management major switched about halfway through to Psychology because of the opportunities that Georgia Southern granted to me. And it was a great opportunity as a student to be able to have those options to tailor my career path towards whatever I really want, and based off passions and things of that nature.
And I think he's just another and by helping our students, mostly, I still have connections with some of the student organizations, I'm in a sorority, so I'm able to give back through my sorority, the chapter here on the Georgia Southern campus, through the Alumni Center, going engaging in the events and being able to give back to the undergrads in that way through the Alumni Center.
Our Career Professional Development office will still provide alumni with opportunities to do resume building to look for jobs, help them with interview skills. So that continues afterward with the alumni connections within our current Professional Development Office, as well as our Alumni Association.
The network is huge and it helps. You know, I've had people reach out to me to say, "Hey, we went to school together, have you heard of other job opportunities?" And I've been able to help them out or vice versa. So even if we don't know each other, the Georgia Southern connection binds us and that network goes a long way. And I know so many people that have gotten their current job because of the Georgia Southern network.
