Career support from the Center for Career Exploration and more!

Brown alumni have access to Center for Career Exploration services for up to three years after graduation. Resources include counseling appointments, guidance on exploring industry pathways, and guides for creating standout resumes, writing cover letters, and negotiating job offers.

Career help is also available through these online career tools for Brown alumni. While you can continue to find career contacts in BrownConnect+, you can also search the Handshake Job Board, practice your interviewing skills, get tips from free career webinars, and more.

Tap into the Brown Network

Start a dialogue with the Brown alumni professional network through the Brown Alumni Association LinkedIn Group or search for alumni by title, keyword, or company on LinkedIn’s Brown University “alumni” tab. If you find an alum on LinkedIn that you are interested in connecting with, check to see if they’re on BrownConnect+ and use the message function to email them directly.

NOTE: In order to continue using BrownConnect+ to contact alumni after graduation, you must edit your profile in myBrown. In the BrownConnect+ section, select alumni-to-alumni networking and student-to-alumni networking under "BrownConnect Networking Preferences." This will allow you to continue contacting others and to be contacted yourself.
