[DSOSU] A Conversation on Neurodiversity and the Job Search

[Torrence, Addison]

Hello everyone,

Please join us via Zoom on Wednesday, February 28 from 1-2pm for a conversation on Neurodiversity and the Job Search led by Eva Menezes.

Eva Menezes is a second-year MBA student at the Fisher College of Business pursuing a Graduate Interdisciplinary Specialization (GIS) in Disability Studies. Eva will share her journey of balancing a rigorous academic program and a competitive MBA internship search process, which included discussing specific accommodations with a potential employer. She will share how she took an unconventional approach as a neurodivergent student navigating a business world with expectations designed for neurotypical individuals. Her distinct approach resulted in a meaningful summer 2023 internship with JPMorgan Chase and a full-time job offer. After completing her MBA in May, she will join the Chase Associate Program (CAP), a two-year rotational management development program, in Columbus.

In addition, Eva will provide insights from a recent independent study project that explored current career services practices and identified areas for improvement in supporting business students at Fisher.

To discuss access requests or ask questions, please contact Addison Torrence (torrence.40 at osu.edu<mailto:torrence.40 at osu.edu>).
