Life After Bentley

Student Athlete Career Lifecycle

With the #1 Undergraduate Career Resource Department, Bentley provides a competitive advantage for your career cycle. On top of that, special networking events just for athletes prepare you to launch after graduation.

EXPLORE. Student-Athletes learn about their unique strengths, how to leverage them, and what career choices may align with their interests. Developing written and verbal self-marketing pieces is integral for success.

DEVELOP SKILLS. Digging deeper into skills through a strength finder assessment and customizing a career plan ensures you are on the right path. Student-athletes will develop the skills necessary to secure an internship, first job, or grad school acceptance.

GAIN EXPERIENCE. Just like sports, practice makes perfect, and you need repetitions before you get playing time. Whether it's participating in leadership activities on campus, helping in the community, or pushing your limits in an internship - the opportunities are endless.

BUILD CONNECTIONS. Whether on the field, in the classroom or out in the world building connections with those who are different from us is central to the concept of team. By leveraging the knowledge of our Alumni and community partnershps, you will leave more connected.
