As we emerge from a global pandemic that has disproportionately impacted women and people of color, how can you ensure a strong match between an employer (and job) and your own values, interests, and identity? 

A panel of Wellesley alumnae shared their stories and expertise from both sides of the table (as talent managers and as employees). Focusing on the interview and negotiation processes, they recommend ways for you to express curiosity, establish trust, learn about cultural fit, and confidently present your authentic self as you take the next step in your career.
