Identity-Based Career Resources

Diversity & Inclusion Statement

As a career center, we are distinctly positioned to assist students in preparing for the future. We are committed to providing all students with the tools and resources necessary for success and acknowledge that systems of oppression and systemic racism create inequities in access to and opportunities in career development. We recognize that students from diverse backgrounds may experience inequitable barriers or have unique needs when identifying potential employers or opportunities, navigating professional environments, or cultivating networks and connections.

It is our hope that this page serves as a tool for furthering your career exploration and internship and job searches. This page is by no means exhaustive of all the options and opportunities available to diverse students, but it is one of many steps forward as we work towards diverse, equitable, and inclusive programming and practices in career exploration. We recognize that this work is dynamic, continuous, and critically engaged and we remain committed to the sustained growth of diversity, equity, and inclusion in career-related services and programming. We strive to continuously reflect on and improve this page and foster belonging in our space. 

We encourage students and colleagues to engage with us in conducting and envisioning this work. If you have suggestions for how we can better support students, please let us know! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Resources

Opportunities

Within our Handshake system, we labeled employers that were listed on one curated lists below in an effort to directly connect students with organizations and opportunities that align with affinities. Many of these employers are actively hiring students, and offer opportunities outside of consulting, finance, STEM roles. These employers and opportunities have been earmarked using labels in Handshake. Learn more about using labels and how they are specifcally being used to organize affinity employers and opportunities within the Handshake system.

Link directly to a Handshake search of opportunities currently available at organizations that were on one of the lists above.

We have also compiled a curated list of opportunities that are actively encouraging diverse applicants.
