AGS Paris Alumni Share their Experience at Career Workshop |
Friday, 13 February 2015 |
On February 12th, AGS hosted a career workshop for the students in the M.A. in International Relations and Diplomacy program. AGS alumni residing in Paris came to share their experience and insights about international affairs careers in France and internationally. They provided advice on resume writing, networking strategies, and career planning, as well as information on job opportunities in Paris and the technicalities of working in France. A special focus was given to careers with the UN and other international organizations. This event was organized by Patrick Clarizier (Class of 2009), Joseph Mangarella (Class of 2011), Wren Peyrard (Class of 2010) and Brandon Roddey (Class of 2011) as part of the "Planning your future" workshop series. A mentoring system has been put in place for AGS students to benefit from the support of the Paris alumni in their career planning and job search - a nice way for the AGS alumni to pay it forward to the next generations of AGSers. |

Ryan MillsUnited States From current issues in the Middle East taught together by an Iranian historian and an Israelli journalist, to NGO management taught by the director of Human Rights Watch in France, every class was fascinating and taught by some of the most impressive people I could ever have imagined. I immediately felt at home in this small but active AGS community because, although students and professors are all from different parts of the world, everyone takes the time to understand each other's perspective. Overall, I would recommend AGS to anyone with a thirst for intellectual stimulation and a drive to not only understand the world of international relations, but engage in it.. |
