In an email from Christina Farmer:
We have now launched the survey for students graduating Dec 2018. The Career Center has emailed all students on the recipient list a link to the survey portal.
I would like to create a culture within AGNR where students are aware of the survey prior to graduation, and that they are eager to share their career outcome with us, post graduation. I am asking for your assistance in this endeavor. In addition to the email from the Center, here are a few other ways to promote the survey:
- Sending a targeted email to Dec Graduates congratulating them on graduation and asking that they complete the survey. The direct link is https://umdsurvey.umd.edu/
jfe/form/SV_3rAPquQctiN2hPn - Sharing and announcing the graduation survey in upper level classes with seniors (I've attached a PPT slide and image file that can be used)
- Including the graduation survey in your blogs or listserv
- Posting the graduation survey information on digital displays or bulletin boards
A few things to know about the survey:
- If students are unsure of their plans right now, they can still complete the survey and select "actively seeking" (still job searching).
- Students have 6 months from now to complete the survey. So, if they don't yet have a job or heard back from grad schools, they can still complete it during the spring (The Center will continue to send emails within the 6 month period).
