Many factors go into consideration when choosing a university, but none should be more important than great career preparation. Few periods of time are as impactful and transformative in a person's career development as the university experience. But many students and parents don't learn how to maximize this time for one's benefit and instead don't find out until close to graduation what they should have done.


Join AmCham Shanghai's Education Committee on Tuesday, November 26, from 18:00 to 20:00 in the AmCham conference room for the event focused on "Advancing Career Development: Early Planning for the Future". This session will be led by a panel of experts in career development and is designed to help students and parents make better decisions about how to use this precious time in building an outstanding career platform. The panelists include Hao Guo, Director, Center for Career Development of New York University Shanghai, Wenting Wu, Director, Employer Relations and China Career Services of University of Southern California, and Stella Zheng, TA Partner Early In Career ASPAC at Johnson & Johnson.
