About the Event:
This event was presented on October 9, 2024 by alumni Alexandria Grant (DFW ’13) and Anna Carlson (Phoenix, ’12) in partnership with Mission Collaborative who coordinates the Career Design Fellowship. In this session, participants explored ways to continue making their unique impact on their growing careers through a four-step career planning process that included reflecting on what you’re good at, defining your career criteria, and testing paths for the best fit.
