students on transitioning from Brooklyn College to their first "real"
job. These alumni have been asked back to discuss their tips for
success, how to ease the college to work transition, what employers
expect of them, what they encountered that they least expected and much
more.

The goal of the panel is for students to be better prepared and informed
about life after college We highly recommend that seniors and juniors

will certainly put them ahead of the game.
