Meet your Career Advisor, Eric McMahan 👋

Summer is the perfect time to focus on your future and Eric is here to help every step of the way. Even while classes are out, students can still schedule appointments throughout the summer!

Summer is the perfect time to level up your LinkedIn presence ☀️

As you prepare for internships, jobs, networking opportunities, and the upcoming school year, take a few minutes to refresh your profile and practice strong LinkedIn etiquette. Small actions like responding to employer comments, updating your experiences, and engaging professionally can make a big impact.

Be sure to follow our LinkedIn page and check in throughout the summer! We regularly share job opportunities, internships, networking events, and career resources for students and alumni 👏

Save the date, Panthers 📅

Before you head off for summer, mark your calendar for the Life Skills Career Summit: Tuesday, September 22.
