“I’m so grateful for the support I received from the Haas Career Management Group even after I graduated! As a career switcher, I ended up with my dream job at Twitter. The CMG is very responsive and professional in advising on overall career transition strategy and detailed interview tactics, connecting me with alumni, providing job market data points, and so much more!”
– Shelley Yan, MBA 15
“I really appreciate the actionable guidance, industry insights, connections, intros, and coaching Haas Career Management Group (CMG) provides! Not only CMG helped to shape my career during the school years, most recently, but CMG was also yet again instrumental in landing my aspirational job as a Director of Strategy at Microsoft. Working with CMG coaches helps one to fully represent compassionate and inclusive Haas leadership style during the interviews and in day-to-day work.”
