Beyond Barnard teamed up with LinkedIn to offer a customized session for Barnard seniors on how to "rock your profile", expand their network, and job search strategically in uncertain times. Barnard alumnae, Keren Baruch ‘13 and Ankita Acharya ‘19, who work at LinkedIn gave seniors insider tips on tailoring each profile section, methods for showcasing our accomplishments and aspirations, and specific examples of profile phrases and language that can help convey what we're bringing to the job market.

Here are some inspirational quotes from our alumnae in case you miss the session!
"New skills are required, and employers expect you to learn them."
"Barnard students are the definition of ingenuity."
"The #1 way companies recruit is by employee referral, so networking is key."
"When you ask for a job, you get advice; when you ask for advice, you get a job."

Our Career Insights series are back!

While a strong quantitative skill set has become an asset to almost every sector, there are some jobs that require more of this than others. Careers in the growing field of data and analytics are great for people who enjoy searching the numbers for the stories hidden inside, then communicating the valuable information they learn. If you think you would be good at this type of work (or want to learn more about this) this event is for you!

Tomorrow at 6:30 PM, join Beyond Barnard virtually for Career Insights: The World of Data and Analytics to hear from alumnae who work in various careers within this field. Learn about how they navigated their professional pathways from Barnard to the present, and hear their thoughts on where this field is headed.

Coupled with the critical thinking, problem-solving, and strong communication skills that are the hallmark of a Barnard education, alumnae with this background are primed for success in whatever fields they enter.
