[Student Reporter] Career Advice and Industry Insights Shared at IGC Career Mentoring Day On Saturday, March 22, 2025, IGC students gathered at George Mason University to gain insightful perspectives and knowledge from multiple mentors during IGC's Spring 2025 Career Mentoring Day for Non-STEM Majors. Ten mentors from well-known companies, including Samsung, HYBE, Dior, and Google, each hosted three 50-minute sessions to help students plan their future careers by sharing valuable advice on the job application process and their respective career experiences. The event began with a brief introduction from each mentor before students were directed to different classrooms where the sessions were held. As a Fashion Business Management student at FIT, one attendee was especially eager to attend the mentoring session led by Eunchae Kim, a Client Service Center Business Analyst at Christian Dior. Kim's role involves analyzing consumer behavior on Dior's e-commerce website to help develop new marketing strategies. She started by sharing her prior career experiences and how she secured her position at Dior. She then provided resume tips, emphasizing the importance of showcasing individual strengths and skills with real examples and achievements—advice that was particularly helpful for students reflecting on their own resumes. She also shared her personal experience preparing for her initial interview with Dior, explaining how she utilized mock interviews on YouTube in both Korean and English. She stressed the importance of researching the company thoroughly and aligning one's values and interview responses with the company's mission to demonstrate genuine enthusiasm for the position. One strategy she introduced that was found to be very helpful was the STAR Method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) for answering behavioral questions, such as "Tell me about a time when you..." These types of questions can be challenging to answer concisely, but the STAR Method helps structure responses clearly and effectively while showcasing relevant skills and experiences. Mastering this can significantly enhance a candidate's ability to stand out in the hiring process. Overall, students left the event feeling more knowledgeable and prepared for their future careers. Hearing insights and advice from industry professionals is an invaluable opportunity, and many expressed gratitude for the chance to learn from experienced mentors. After such a rewarding experience, attendees were excited to apply what they had learned and approach the job application process with more confidence than before.
