ExecConnect is an innovative career services program at the Questrom School of Business that connects current and former C-suite executives with students and alumni. Unlike traditional career coaching or volunteer mentorship models, ExecConnect embeds industry leaders as dedicated staff who become part of the fabric of the school, enabling them to provide consistent and customized support.

These executives have built teams, shaped cultures, and made hiring decisions. Through one-on-one meetings with students and alumni, Exec Connect consultants deliver what few programs can: unfiltered executive perspective. They offer candid insight into how organizations operate, what separates candidates who advance from those who don’t, and how to navigate corporate environments with confidence. With deep expertise spanning industries and functions, they remain at the forefront of trends reshaping today’s professional landscape, equipping students, and alumni with a meaningful competitive edge.
Consultants provide:
- Real industry intelligence: what employers are looking for right now, beyond what you will find in a job description.
- Corporate culture navigation: how organizations actually work, and how to position yourself to thrive in them.
- End-to-end job search strategy: how to be a standout candidate through every stage of the process.
All appointments with career advisors, coaches and consultants can be scheduled via Handshake.
