Reality Changers alumni are privy to a number of key benefits, access to mentors and fellow alumni chief among them. Such networking opportunities allow graduates to build valuable connections and expand their professional reach. We also offer support and resources for graduates who are seeking employment or hoping to advance in their field. This includes job search assistance and help writing your resume and cover letters. There are opportunities for continual growth and learning, as well as the chance to give back to the next generation of aspiring college students.
Reality Changers alumni resources are undeniably useful, but the alumni themselves can provide unique perspective for recent graduates. Networking can provide a sense of camaraderie and community, allowing for the exchange of challenges, successes, and experiences. Befriending other alumni can open up valuable opportunities like job leads, mentorship, and industry knowledge. Alumni may be able to provide recommendations and referrals, which are essential in advancing the careers of new graduates.
