Careers and Internships

NYC Employer Trek

On Wednesday, Jan. 8, 2020, Dietrich College Career Consultants will be leading students through NYC to visit employers on-site for general networking and learning. Look out for more information coming in December.

G2U (Government to University) Mentorship Program

Pittsburgh’s Federal Executive Board in collaboration with the Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy is launching the G2U (Government to University) Mentorship Program. The goal of the program is to connect current federal employees based in Pittsburgh with CMU students to engage in discussions about federal service and available opportunities. 

The program will utilize the LinkedIn Groups feature. To join the program:

• Go to this LinkedIn Group
• Click “Request to join” on the Group page
• Amber Klemetti from the Federal Executive Board is the owner of the group and will approve your access

Once approved, you will be given access to post to the group, view all members, share documents and videos, and message group members

Federal employees will share job vacancies, job fair information, relevant articles and free webinars. Students are encouraged to ask questions to the group regarding USAJOBS & applications, federal pay scales and internship/full-time opportunities. Participants can pose and answer questions in the entire group or send a private message to members of the group.

Student-Employer Connect Event 

Friday, Nov. 15, 10 to 11:30 a.m., Center for Student Diversity and Inclusion, Cohon University Center

Students and employers will engage in a unique opportunity to connect and network in a barrier-free environment. This event will enable diverse students to apply their professional skills and provide our employers with a chance to meet candidates from CMU. Refreshments and a cool down space are provided! Questions? Contact Amy Tavares.

Co-hosted by The Olitsky Family Foundation, Career Readiness Program and the Center for Diversity and Inclusion.
