UNHIREABLE PODCAST LIVE

Three Reasons Employers Find Students UNHIREABLE

A live lecture presented by UW Family Weekend. Join Kevin Mihata and Matt Erickson from the UW College of Arts & Sciences UNHIREABLE podcast for an informal discussion about what they’ve learned after years of having blunt conversations with the people who hire (or choose not to hire) UW graduates.  They’ll share some uncomfortable truths about college, career, and growth. But you’ll learn the good news that students who see past clichés can change their early-career trajectory — both personally and professionally.
