We tried a bit of an experiment a few years ago. We called it ‘coffee time with an exec’.
The idea was that we would ask all of the students on a particular students tour (in this case, it was 20) to nominate three industries they were interested in. We then reached out to our network and made sure that each individual student was matched to someone from one of the three industries they chose. We would then make a time for the student to go and meet this person and ask them some questions one-on-one.
It was a great success and in 2015, we will be re-introducing it on certain programs in consultation with the academic in charge of those programs.
