Located in Doti Hall, the night consisted of proactive conversations, delicious refreshments and an overall expansion of everyone&#x2019;s professional network. Although this event is reserved exclusively for alumni and I don&#x2019;t classify as one (&#x2026;yet), as the student assistant to<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/alumni\/career-services\/index.aspx\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><span style=\"color: #98002e\">Career and Industry<\/span><\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n, I had the opportunity to observe this Roundtable and witness firsthand the impact that it provides.&#xD;<br \/>\n&#xD;<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7266\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7266\" style=\"width: 329px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7266\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2016\/07\/IMG_4181.jpg\" alt=\"img_4181\" width=\"329\" height=\"494\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7266\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\n<strong>Jo Bandy<\/strong><br \/>\n&#xA0;(Director of Career and Industry) and<br \/>\n<strong>Adam Coughran &#x2019;04 (M.A. &#x2019;10)<\/strong><br \/>\n discussing with one another outside before the Networking Roundtable begins<\/figcaption><\/figure>&#xD;<br \/>\n&#xD;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adam Coughran &#x2019;04 (M.A. &#x2019;10)<\/strong><br \/>\n kicked off the night with an opening message, explaining how Chapman is moving forward and making large strides with its recent focus on Career and Industry, and more specifically,<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/groups\/54346\/54346-6144194091790905351\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><span style=\"color: #98002e\">the Alumni Association&#8217;s priority on career services<\/span><\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n. These successes were&#xA0;further demonstrated as the Roundtable turned to<br \/>\n<strong>Mona Sleiman &#x2019;14 (M.S. &#x2019;15)<\/strong><br \/>\n, a regular Networking Roundtable attendee. Originally having a different career path in mind, Mona came seeking advice on how to further progress in her new interest&#x2014;a career in the field of recruitment. It was at a Networking Roundtable like this one, where she met<br \/>\n<strong>Jo Bandy<\/strong><br \/>\n, director of Career and Industry, who continued the conversation and connected Mona with resources. After that successful encounter, Mona was a constant presence at Roundtables&#xA0;and continued&#xA0;her research on the recruiting industry. The July Roundtable was the first one Mona attended as a recruiter and she served as a resource to her fellow alumni. Mona&#x2019;s success story shows a full-circle, career continuum as she reconnected to her alma mater&#xA0;with a Think Chapman First mindset.&#xD;<br \/>\n&#xD;<br \/>\nThe spotlight then transitioned to the attendees. Everyone took turns around the table (hence, the name &#x201C;Roundtable&#x201D;), speaking for up to two minutes and sharing their networking bio (a single page document that tells everyone in the room who you are, what you&#x2019;ve done, what you hope to do, how you can help them, and what you need assistance\/connections in). After a&#xA0;short presentation from each alumnus, discussion opened up for the other attendees to give feedback, and make suggestions and introductions where appropriate. The result of this process was&#xA0;a very intimate and honest conversation between peers. I realized that it was&#xA0;through these&#xA0;open discussions that connections were&#xA0;formed. What was&#xA0;amazing about this event was&#xA0;that the 13&#xA0;guests present at the Roundtable all started off as strangers with different career goals in mind, and it seemed almost unreal that they would&#xA0;provide each other with the desired connections. And yet, as the night unfolded, many second, third, and even fourth connections were made. The phrase, &#x201C;it&#x2019;s a small world after all,&#x201D; rings true.&#xD;<br \/>\n&#xD;<br \/>\nAs an undergrad, everyone tells you the importance of networking. But, the weight of this advice did not hit home to me until this Roundtable. Personally, the event showed that I have a strong, extended network of high-achieving Panthers. It inspired me to give back and be active in the Chapman community even after I graduate. This night confirmed to me that Chapman truly is&#x2026; your career connection for life.&#xD;<br \/>\n&#xD;<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7264\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7264\" style=\"width: 345px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7264\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2016\/07\/IMG_4209.jpg\" alt=\"img_4209\" width=\"345\" height=\"230\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7264\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\n<strong>Mona Sleiman &#x2019;14 (M.S. &#x2019;15)<\/strong><br \/>\n and other fellow alumni continuing the conversations following&#xA0;the Networking Roundtable<\/figcaption><\/figure>&#xD;<br \/>\n&#xD;<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7265\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7265\" style=\"width: 345px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7265\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2016\/07\/IMG_4184.jpg\" alt=\"img_4184\" width=\"345\" height=\"230\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7265\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/>\n Alumni settling in and networking as they wait for the Roundtable to start<\/figcaption><\/figure>&#xD;<br \/>\n&#xD;<br \/>\n&#xA0;&#xD;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/events.chapman.edu\/?view=list&amp;group_id=179\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><span style=\"color: #98002e\">Who knows, your next opportunity may be waiting for you at an upcoming Networking Roundtable.
