Curious if you can try out different non-business careers with your Kelley background and degree? UCS Podcast Host JP brought one of our OG podcast hosts and Kelley alumna Sabrina Siew (check out her content on Instagram @sabrinaendsley) back to talk about her day job (hello, Corporate America!) and her passion job AKA side hustle (social media influencer/blogger) and how her experience and academic training at Kelley have fully prepared her to venture in both her "traditional" and "non-traditional" career paths!

It's been dubbed the "Best College Weekend Ever" by many, it's Little 500 week! To celebrate the race coming back fully in-person this year (since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic), JP speaks with two Kelley alumni who now are out in the professional world with Little 500 glory days still fresh in their minds (spoiler alert: they both rode in Little 500!). Come learn about what Little 500 actually means (minus just the parties and social gatherings) to IU and the community, and how the two Kelleys' Little 500 experience helped shape their respective career paths beyond the race track!

Are you looking for internships and full-time opportunities? This one’s for YOU! For our sixth episode for Season 2, JP sits down with Kelley UCS’ very own Jill Storm (Associate Director of Employer Engagement & Strategic Partnerships) and Rebecca Cook (Executive Director of Kelley Undergraduate Career Services) to find out what exactly is “just-in-time recruiting,” why it’s a great time for students who are looking for opportunities this summer, and how to maximize your chances to get hired!

Happy Kelley UCS Junior + Senior Week! With less than two months left of the semester, we know the last several weeks of classes after spring break can be exciting but also extremely stressful. In this episode, JP talks with two health educators from IU Student Health Center on why it's so important to focus on yourself and share helpful tips to get you through this last stretch of spring semester STRONG! 

You may have heard that "recruiting is a journey." It really is, everyone has a recruiting experience that's either a bit similar or completely different. This is especially true for students from diverse backgrounds. Listen in as JP talks with three Kelley undergraduate guest speakers from diverse, underrepresented communities, who share their unique recruiting stories--from the struggles, opportunities, and learning moments--and highlight the importance of bringing their genuine self to their career search/recruiting journey success!

We get these questions quite often--"I'm a freshman/sophomore, what do I need to be doing this summer? Do I need an internship?" Co-hosts JP and Michelle speak with Kelley junior Max Kelly on their freshman and sophomore opportunities, and why enjoying your last "real, fun, college summers" the first two years of college, while gaining any learning opportunities (that includes networking and researching industries/companies/career fields you may be interested in) are what you NEED as a freshman or sophomore this coming summer. So, if you're a freshman or sophomore, tune in, you're going to get some incredible insights from the three juniors who've "been there and done that" as freshmen and sophomores! 

Spring 2022 recruiting is in full swing! Co-hosts JP and Shiv speak with Kelley alumnus Adrian Palacios on his perspectives of recruiting as an employer! Don't miss out on all the helpful tips and thoughts Adrian shares for virtual spring recruiting.
