What We Do
The Barowsky School of Business (BSB) partners with local Bay Area companies to provide experiential learning opportunities for students and job placement upon graduation. Students work closely with BSB Career Services to prepare them to move forward in their careers and life beyond graduation. Our services include individualized one-on-one assistance and professional development events.
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, we have adjusted our services to include virtual opportunities, such as:
-
Reaching out to local employers to find work and internship opportunities for students and new graduates
-
Coaching students one-to-one (via Zoom and phone) through layoffs and changes in work status due to COVID-19
-
Providing resume and job search assistance specific to looking for a job during these challenging economic times
Job Placement
BSB Career Services works with business students to assist with job placement. Employers post full-time positions for graduate students in a variety of industries and roles. BSB also has partnerships with recruiters to help students and alumni find jobs post-graduation. Our students find jobs locally in Marin County, in the greater Bay Area, as well as around the country.
Internships
Students have the opportunity to search for internships during their graduate programs. In Fall 2019, 52 percent of business students are currently interning in approved business internships. Employers post paid part-time internship opportunities for students year round. These experiences help students become highly marketable as they look to advance their careers after graduation. Students intern in a variety of fields including marketing, social media, operations, human resources, accounting, finance, and more.
Professional Development
Business students have the opportunity to develop professionally and move forward in their careers. In addition to our annual BSB Career Fair, students have the opportunity to learn or touch up their skills in the following areas:
- Job search: Resumes, cover letters, interviewing
- Networking
- Salary negotiations
- Evaluating job offers
Where do BSB Students Intern and Work?
BSB students work in a variety of companies, from small local businesses to large Fortune 500 companies to up-and-coming tech start-ups. Graduate students work at Salesforce, California Pacific Medical Center, Genentech, Charles Schwab, and more.
