Skidmore parents, working cooperatively, can pool their resources and help Skidmore students and alumni understand and access the broadest possible array of opportunities. Parents are strongly encouraged to join the Career Network to share the career/ industry knowledge which they possess with the sons/daughters of other Skidmore parents!

By joining the Career Network and becoming "Career Advisors" Skidmore parents can help in any or all of the following ways:

• conducting informational interviews with students/alumni
• hosting a job shadower for a day or two over a break period
• sharing internship or job leads with Career Services
• participating in regional or campus programs
• holding an employer information session on campus and collecting resumes

Here's how to volunteer to help:

• Join the Career Network
• Share job or internship leads at your employer
• Volunteer as a job shadow sponsor
  Encourage your employer to participate in Skidmore’s recruitment program

Thanks so much for your interest in working together with other Skidmore parents to open doors for Skidmore students!
