Career Management Services

The MSITM program’s career management team has a consistently excellent record for assisting employment-seeking students. Our career management team provides a variety of resources to our students to help them prepare for the rigorous recruiting season. We guide students through the recruitment process and help employers connect with students. 

Career Coaching

Each MSITM student is paired with a career coach for one-on-one coaching throughout the program. Topics for career coaching appointments include:

  • Career exploration and research

  • Career transition guidance

  • Cover letter, resume, or LinkedIn reviews

  • Interview preparation (mock and case)

  • Networking and recruiter outreach

  • Offer evaluation and negotiation

MSITM Workships and Events

Throughout the semester, the career management team hosts events for students to strengthen their professional connections, including tech-focused career education, networking, guest speaker events and workshops taught by industry partners and career coaches.

Past MSITM career events include case interview prep with author David L. Ohrvall, job closing tips with senior career consultant Steve Dalton, and product manager interviewing with Lewis C. Lin.

MS Career Fridays

Every Friday during the semester is dedicated to career development and discovery. No formal classes are held to give students time to attend career workshops and work independently on their professional development goals. MSITM career workshops offer a specific focus on landing a career in tech.
