Message from the Director of Alumni Relations and Volunteer Engagement

 

Dear FIRSTNAME:   

 

On May 27, more than 5,600 members of the Class of 2021 graduated from Baruch College. These new alumni truly define what it means to persevere during challenging times, having spent their final 15 months of undergraduate and graduate school on Zoom. We applaud each and every one of these students and are thrilled to welcome them to the Baruch Alumni Network! 

 

Many of these students were the fortunate recipients of job offers through on-campus recruiting, responding to online job postings, and impactful networking. We now turn to you, our alumni, to help those who have not yet found their ideal job or are looking to break into a new field. Please help the Class of 2021, as well as those from the Class of 2020 who are still looking for positions, and #HireBaruch! 

 

Please fill out this survey and let us know what positions you are seeking to fill, and/or if you are looking for candidates with specific skills. A member of our Career Services team will follow up with you and further discuss your needs. Thank you very much! 

 

Check out our events calendar for our virtual summer programs, and if you haven't made your gift to Baruch yet this year, please note that our fiscal year ends on June 30. Every dollar supports our students—and every gift helps to increase our alumni giving participation rate, which is often included when calculating college rankings. Click here to make your gift today. 

 

Stay cool, Bearcats! 

 

Most sincerely,

 

Janet B. Rossbach

Director, Alumni Relations and Volunteer Engagement
