Comments from Past Participants
-
 Students
- “AMAZING, very helpful and helped me realize it was something I really wanted to pursue.”
- “I was exposed to a field that I knew very little about and I ended up really enjoying the experience and intrigued by the profession. The experience opened my eyes to a potential career path.”
- “The most beneficial part of the experience was just being able to talk with someone from SCU who is in the working world.”
- “Actually it was kind of difficult. I felt that the more [name] said, the more I realized [this career] wasn’t right for me. I appreciated learning this from [name] instead of [going into it] right away.”
- “It was very helpful. I was scared about what the business world would be like, so it gave me a good experience.”
- “I learned a lot about daily life and general interaction between co-workers.”

Alumni
- “Great – [the student] was very enthusiastic and eager with lots of good questions.”
- “The experience was rewarding since I have an interest in students and helping them in any way I can to determine a career path.”
- “Great – it was nice to again feel a part of SCU.”
- “It’s a wonderful experience to spend [time] with someone who is looking towards the career I’m in and curious – asking questions and wanting to know ‘everything’.”
- “I felt like I was able to provide good insight into what my typical day looks like, how I got to my current position, and how I found my present job/career.”
- “It was a nice experience to have a SCU undergrad be a part of a workday. I know I would’ve been somewhat enlightened if I had attended a workday in a large corporation prior to my first job out of college.”
- “It was reflective for me to see my experience through someone else’s eyes (now that I’m all settled in and take so much of it for granted!).”
- “It was actually pretty fun. I found it helpful for me to talk to someone with minimal business experience and not only share what I do, but also what working in a startup involves.”
