Come celebrate our graduating students and reward yourselves for an incredible year! This time we’re holding our happy hour at Ellington in the Park where we can promise some food, fun, and community bonding in the sunshine (hopefully). This happy hour will be open to all, so please bring your non-OHDCC friends!

Ian Saville graduated from Teachers College in 2009 with a master’s in Art and Art Education and a strong desire to become an art teacher. After a few years in that field, he made the jump to organizational training and now he's the Global Head of Learning & Development at Meta (the company that unites Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, Twitter and more)! The team he leads is responsible for training 45k (!) people around the world. Both soft and hard skills are involved, from supporting the delivery of DEI agendas to creating learning programs from scratch!

The OHDCC Happy Hour in October will be in person! We’re tentatively planning on holding it at Harlem Tavern, but there will definitely be lots of food and trivia!

Note: This event was originally scheduled for Thursday, October 14th but in the interest of making this a special off-campus event, it was necessary for us to push it back. Apologies for those who can no longer make it, but more happy hours will follow!

Come spend your lunch break with alumni from the Social-Organizational Psychology program to hear firsthand about after-graduation career options! We will be holding these “lunch-and-learns” once a month through the rest of the semester. We aim to introduce you to a variety of professions, industries, and ideas on how to get where you want to go. Our speakers went through the same journey you are experiencing now and are excited to share their stories.

This month we will be featuring Lina Cortes (S-OP ’21). Lina will share insights about the specific role of an HR Generalist, her journey as an international student and corporate culture in companies like MorrocanOil, Moet-Hennessy, Bershka, and Tiffany & Co. We hope you can make it!

The best way to prepare for interviews is to practice many times with different interviewers. With an OHDCC Interview Practice Group, you will be matched with several other students with whom you can switch off serving as mock interviewers.
