About online networking

Through Bear to Bear: MarooNation Online Networking you’ll be able to connect with Bears for one-on-one networking conversations about topics that appeal to you. This program is a new benefit sponsored by the Alumni Association and provided to graduates free of charge.

How it works:

• During an online networking event, you will be randomly paired with another Bear for an eight-minute, text-based chat.
• When the time expires, you will be paired with a different person.
• This process will continue until the event ends, which allows you to make connections, exchange contact information and end the hour with several new contacts.
• Following the event, we suggest that you add the contacts to your network by connecting on LinkedIn or following up via email.
