Tuesday Talks is an opportunity for the GSAPP Students to connect with the larger Alumni community for informational mentorship this Spring. The program pairs current students with alumni professionals for hour-long, one-on-one conversations about career development. Alumni mentors may participate once, or as many times as they wish.
The opportunity to speak about the job market with trusted alumni—including those in other American cities and international locations is invaluable to emerging practitioners. The demand for mentorship has remained high since the program’s inception in March 2020. To volunteer as a mentor, send a note to gsappalumni@columbia.edu with your job title, company name, and location.
Thank you to our GSAPP Alumni Volunteers for Tuesday, February 1 at 9:00am EST.
