Every spring, Menlo College’s Career Connect Day brings together students, alumni, and industry professionals for a day of networking and career exploration. With no classes held that day, students can focus entirely on their career development. Students will hear from industry experts on topics like navigating the job search and leveraging AI, followed by a Career Fair connecting them with employers offering internships, part-time, and full-time opportunities.
Career Connect Day is the perfect chance to gain new skills, make connections, and advance your career journey.
