ASU a top-ranked university for graduate employability

A W. P. Carey marketing expert discusses connecting ASU students with prospective employers.

In this story published Nov. 20, 2024, in the Phoenix Business Journal:

For example, I include guest speakers in my classes as well as feature companies for live projects. As part of the professional sales program, we host events to promote connections between students and employers, such as career fairs and sales competitions, where employers can judge and network with students. We recently launched a mentorship program to expose students to executives in the industries in which they are interested. Essentially, if students ask me to help them find a job, I ask them questions to understand their preferences and connect them with hiring managers or recruiters. There is nothing more rewarding than hearing that one of my students landed their dream job.
