Drop-in Career Advising

Graduating Year: June 2024

Major: Business Administration, concentration in Operations & Business Analytics

Career Advice for My Freshman self: Take advantage of the opportunities at the college. If you have an interest or a skill you want to learn, there is likely a dedicated club/workshop to help with that– you just have to know about it. Explore events outside of your major and be aware of benefits offered specifically to your college. There are resources available to you and catered toward you as a UO student that you will never have so easily available again.

Graduating Year: 2025

Major: Business Administration, concentration in Finance

Career advice for my freshman self: Start getting involved in things on-campus as early as possible, and grow your connections and experience from there.

Graduating Year: June 2023

Major: Business Administration | Finance Concentration

Career Advice for My Freshman Self: If I could go back and tell myself anything it would be to get involved early- especially in something that offers opportunities for promotion and movement into leadership positions. That way, you can work your way up to gain real-world experience by your junior/senior year and feel really involved in a group or organization. That sense of community is extremely important and almost always provides opportunities you didn’t see possible at first.

Graduating Year: June 2025

Major: Public Relations

Career Advice: My biggest piece of advice would be to take initiative and be responsible for your own career development. Opportunities don’t just fall in your lap, so make the effort to schedule appointments with advisors and visit workshops and networking events to set yourself up for success. By starting that process early, you can avoid being caught off guard by application deadlines and instead approach them confidently and optimistically.

• Career advice: I would tell my younger self to make more outside of the classroom and invest more in career interests. Don’t be afraid to explore different career paths and take on new challenges. College is a time to discover your passions and interests, so try out different classes and extracurricular activities that you may not have considered before.
