Office Hour: "Master Networking Skills to Launch Your Career"

Waterloo Engineering students and alumni are invited to participate in an exclusive virtual Office Hour "Master Networking Skills to Launch Your Career" sponsored by Ten Thousand Coffees.

In addition, we know that fear and nerves can get in the way when trying to network at a first job or internship. But don't worry, we have you covered!
