Student Perspective: Dan Garcia

MBA ’25 | Strategy & Transformation Senior, EY

“Having recently departed military service meant I had to focus on specific areas to cover my experience gaps. The Career Center was instrumental in helping me navigate my career options to help overcome those gaps. Where I am today is because of the Mendoza alumni network. It gave me insights and connections to my new role after serving in the military.”

Student Perspective: Alex Fowler

MBA ’25 | Class of 2025 Summer Associate MBA Intern, Alvarez and Marsal 

“The Notre Dame Alumni network was instrumental to my career search. Networking can seem intimidating and transactional but very quickly I learned that the Alumni I was reaching out to were interested in me personally and my career search journey. Everyone I spoke to helped paint a better picture of what they did, what to expect, and how to better present my past experiences. Coming into the MBA program, I knew the Alumni network was strong but it exceeded my expectations.”

Student Perspective: Pooja Poddar

MBA ’25 | Class of 2025 MBA Intern, Amazon FLDP

“I interned at Amazon in their Finance Leadership Development Program (FLDP), and I’m excited to be returning there full-time. The Career Development Office played a key role in my journey, especially through one-on-one sessions with my career coach and the valuable resources provided by the Finance & Investment Club, which helped me prepare for interviews. Career-focused events and clubs offered great networking opportunities and real-world insights, helping me build a strong network. If I had to sum it up, I’d say Mendoza’s career development experience empowered me with the confidence, connections, and clarity to achieve my goals.”
