Explore Early Career Pathways Across Industries

Join us for an interactive event designed to introduce you to early pathway, exploratory, and leadership development programs across a range of industries. If you are a first-year or second-year student — or simply curious about internship pathways — this showcase will help you learn how organizations structure programs that support emerging talent.

During the event, you will meet employer representatives from companies offering Early ID programs, sophomore leadership opportunities, rotational roles, and other early career pipelines. You will have the chance to ask questions, explore pathways across sectors, and engage directly with teams who support early talent.
