Career Conversations
New York City Career Conversations
Hosted by the Alumni Association Board & the Center for Academic and Career Engagement
Our Biggest Networking Event of the Year
Career Conversations connects alumni and parents with today’s Wagner students for conversations about all things related to careers — pursuing an education, finding the right path, and networking. Alumni and parents are invited to share wisdom, advice, and experiences with the students. Whatever your career field may be, we ask that you volunteer your time to speak with our students of all majors and grades.
This is a networking event, and not a job/career fair. All those who chose to participate in Career Conversations are agreeing to speak with current Wagner College students about networking, their job experience, and their industry. Students look forward with making connections with Wagner College alumni and parents and getting their career and academic advice.
Career Conversations is held in the spring academic semester (March or April) in a location in New York City. It begins with a private alumni and parent networking reception from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Then, Career Conversations begins at 7:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. with student networking.
There is a dress code required for all participants. Men are required to wear dress shirts, jackets and tie required. Women must conform to similar standards, such as tailored clothing that otherwise conforms to this rule including suits, dresses, and skirts or tailors trousers with dress shirts, blouses or sweaters. Jeans, shorts, capris, sneakers, flip flops and other such casual sportswear are not considered appropriate attire.
This year’s Career Conversations will be held on Wednesday, April 6, 2022. If you are interested in attending Career Conversations, please contact alumni@wagner.edu.
