Be Prepared, Be Knowledgeable, Be Employed

As you progress through the MSFIN program, we encourage you to define your career direction early. By taking the time to do so, you will set yourself up for a more productive and fruitful job search process. 

Why is this important?

  • Tailored Skill Development: When you have a specific career path in mind, you can proactively develop the skills, competencies, and qualifications sought after by employers.
  • Networking Opportunities: Building a professional network is crucial for success in the field of finance. By defining your career path early, you can focus on building relationships with professionals who can provide valuable insights, mentorship, and potential job opportunities aligned with your chosen path. 
  • Targeted Job Search: A well-defined career path within finance enables you to focus your job search efforts effectively. Rather than applying blindly to positions, a focused approach increases your chances of finding a position that matches your skills and interests and offers long-term growth and fulfillment.

We encourage you to leverage the resources available at W. P. Carey to aid you in determining your career path. Engage with our dedicated MSFIN Career Coach for continuous career support. Take advantage of workshops, career fairs, and networking events that provide opportunities to explore different industries and gain valuable insights from seasoned professionals.
