Only 4% of the Hispanic-Latinx community occupy senior positions in the corporate world. To increase their representation, there are three tips that corporations should utilize: mentorship programs, leadership programs, and education programs.

We interviewed two employers from the Spring 2023 Job and Internship Networking Mixer, Sara Marlovits from Northwestern Mutual and Dan Synde from Heritage Valley Healthcare System. Also, we interviewed one employer from the recent Fall 2023 Job and Internship Networking Mixer, Valetta Mays. These employers gave an insight into the mixer event, views about students, and advice for them as well.

Over the summer, we contacted students to understand their internship. We are sharing their stories to highlight their experiences and the knowledge they gained from it for you get inspiration from for your own internship search.

We interviewed our Graduate Associate, Julia Rayburg, and our undergraduate Student Assistant, Emily Steinberg about their time working for Career Development and their future goals.
