Wednesday, July 12, 2017
It’s good to think about your future after college. I know it can take the fun out of what’s
happening at the present but if you don’t consider things in the next few years, you might miss
out on good opportunities. If you’re a college student like me, you have to get your name out
there and build business networks while you’re still gathering experience.
One of the ways to build a connection is through Linkedin. Creating a profile in the social
platform is a good start when it comes to finding opportunities in reputable companies. By listing
down your educational background and work experience, you might attract the attention of HR
professionals looking for skilled people. The site is also a good place where you can gain business
insights.

Steve Sorensen UBS
I'm Steve Sorensen, a member
of the Undergraduate Business
Society (UBS) at the University of California,
Los Angeles. I joined the UBS to expand my
academic and career opportunity horizons,
hoping to build up a network that would help
prepare the skill set needed to gain a career-
building advantage in some of the most
competitive industries in business. Currently, I
am taking my undergraduate degree in
business economics. An adopted Angeleno, I
actually hail from suburban Phoenix, and on
school breaks, take the trip back home to get
reacquainted with my roots. I've taken up
photography in my spare time as a way to keep
my mind off school during downtime. The
Sonoran Desert remains one of my favorite
photographic subjects.

Another way to build business connections while in college is to attend job fairs hosted by
organizations and alumni associations. This gathering will expose you to different companies and
you’ll also get to meet successful alumni that will help you in the future. You’ll also get a glimpse
of life in the workforce from the talks and lectures.
And lastly, your internship matters. You have to take it seriously. Even if it means doing menial
tasks, it will build up your reputation in the company. If you get high marks for your performance,
the company might absorb you after you graduate. Find a good company for an internship and do
your job well.
These three things are great ways to find a job that you might want to have in the future. When
you’re in college, learning is no longer confined in the classroom. You have to be proactive in
finding openings that will lead you to success.
Thanks for visiting. I'm Steve Sorensen, a member of the Undergraduate Business Society (UBS) at
the University of California, Los Angeles. While I still have a few years before graduating, I’m
already thinking about my future in the workforce. Visit this page for more updates.
