Networking Tips

When using the Alumni Online Directory to identify career networking contacts, it is important to consider the following:

  • By choosing Advanced Search your networking capacity is expanded as you no longer are searching by name, but are searching for all alumni who meet certain criteria.
  • These criteria (categories) and any combination thereof allow you to refine your search accordingly. For example, you may search for all alumni in the Class of 1988, working in the accounting field and living in Connecticut and who have agreed to be a career advisor.
  • Please select Y as the Career Planning Volunteer Indicator on the drop down menu. In this way you will be identifying only those alumni who have agreed to serve as career advisors.
  • The Online Directory Search Tips provide additional information that is helpful for conducting your search.
