Publishing CareerBuilder: Success Stories – Strategies that Work

Mon, September 27, 2021 – 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM EDT

Calling all publishing professionals — aspiring and experienced! Let us help you prepare for that next opportunity!

After many organizations instituted hiring freezes in 2020 due to the pandemic, the pace of hiring in the publishing field is heating up and many GW Publishing students and alumni have found new opportunities.

Join this Publishing CareerBuilder to hear how students and alumni have leveraged networking, resume building, goal setting, and perseverance to succeed in their job search. Learn how they utilized CPS Career Services, Publishing courses, other GW Publishing opportunities, and other resources to help them reach their career goals.

We will be joined by MPS in Publishing students Aimar Galarza and Anna Miller (both with Pubvendo) and recent MPS in Publishing graduates Komal Ganjoo (Penn State University Press) and Gabrielle Bethancourt-Hughes (Wiley).

The CareerBuilder Series is designed to provide training and discussion on areas that are somewhat out of course goals, but may be important to your career or interests.
