Internships, Jobs and Research Opportunities

March Challenge: Students, whether you are just starting your search, already applying and interviewing, or preparing to start an internship, job or research opportunity, this is the time to seek the advice and expertise of your mentor – no matter what phase you are in. Mentors, reach out to your student and ask where they are in this process and how you can help. Your guidance could give them the edge they need to secure a great opportunity and succeed in that position.

Mentor Spotlight: Andrew Conde '15

"Andrew has been so helpful and encouraging. He's helped me move past all my fears of the lucrative field that is the music industry, and has helped connect me with other individuals within the industry that I can relate to and gain further insight from. He's incredibly informative and genuinely listens to provide the best advice possible. I couldn't ask for a better mentor!" – Lidia Margaryan, first-year transfer student majoring in English.

Andrew is mentoring multiple students this year.  He earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in music history in 2015 and currently works in music distribution and label management.
