What
is the Shadow-A-Saint Program? |
|
The Shadow a Saint program was designed by the office of Career Services to help St. Lawrence students
explore a variety of occupational interests. Students are matched
with alumni volunteers in the geographical and career area of
their interest and spend a day over the Winter Break
shadowing their mentor.
|
How do Shadow a Saint sponsors
benefit from the program? |
|
Alumni volunteers in the past have delighted in the opportunity
to help students learn about their careers and places of employment.
Alumni may also enjoy hearing fresh ideas and staying in contact
with Laurentians.
|
What is the role of the Shadow sponsor? |
|
Students are not paid for their shadow experience. Sponsors are
expected only to exchange ideas with the students, while providing
an introduction to their industry or organization. Students are
interested in seeing a typical day on the job and speaking with
professionals in a variety of roles.
Sponsors may also offer suggestions regarding further exploration
of career fields through internships and networking, or provide
advice on the search process.
