SOMPost Newsletter – November 2024


When academics take a break, recruiting does not

If you will be conducting interviews or hosting virtual sessions during the upcoming Yale SOM academic breaks, let your Employer Partnerships Manager know or email som.recruiting@yale.edu with the details. We will share the dates with students so they can build flexibility into their break schedules to manage potential interviews and recruiting engagements.

November recess: Nov. 25 – 29, 2024

Winter recess: Dec.18, 2024 – Jan. 21, 2025

Engage with Yale SOM students before exams

You focus on building connections with students around recruiting; we manage the logistics and marketing. Keep it light through choosing a format that focuses on connections instead of presentation: Ask Me Anything, Open Hours, Coffee Chats.
Also available: screener interviews to quickly identify top candidates.

Dec. 2 – 10, 2024

CDO Culture Wall

Each month we will share a panel from the CDO Culture Wall. Together, they make up the culture and narrative we’re creating in the Yale SOM CDO!

Gratitude, Pass It On is a reminder that gratitude is contagious. In a world with jam-packed schedules and endless to-do lists, the easiest thing we can do is to say thank you.  An honest thank you is never wrong, and is often remembered.
