Career Insights with Design Pros

The expected attendance was 50, so we were just a little bit off the mark. I think if we planned for the event to be a bit more interactive so that students could get more information and purpose from the event, there may have been higher attendance.

The purpose of the event was to have designers from industry talk about their experiences and career journey with students, as well as answer questions students have.
Although we expected higher attendance, I think the event was still a success because many students stayed behind to connect and ask more personal questions and advice from the guest designers invited. Although the event ended at 7PM, many students stayed till 10PM.
My VP, Nitya, has been super nice and helpful. Additionally, Ashley, one of the design event hosts, has also been extremely helpful in co-hosting the event.
There were some technical issues with the Q&A session, and the mic was a bit finnicky at times.
I think I would coordinate with the guest designers more and brainstorm more creative ways to increase interaction between the speakers and students.
I would maybe brainstorm more ways to create more hype, because I think talking to industry professionals, especially alumni is really helpful for students looking for advice and guidance.
