Virtual Career Panel

March 2023
To further our chapter's focus on career development this semester, we hosted a virtual career panel with three experts in the field: (University of Houston), (Rhode Island College), and (Duke University). We learned about their career journeys, what changes they've noticed in the job field, what skills students should focus on developing, and what major challenges they faced when first entering the job market. The event gave us some rare and valuable insight into finding employment and being employed as an archivist.
