Academic Night: Moving Forward with Your Career in Turbulent Times

Join us for FEI Washington State's Annual Academic Night (Virtual).  This year's theme will focus on Moving Forward with Your Career in Turbulent Times.  

Attendees will hear from a panel of seasoned presenters on their own career paths, as well as a variety of timely topics focused on career development, such as:
  • If you had to start your career today, what would you have to do differently or what are some of the changes you will have to confront?
    1. How would you source an entry-level person or hire?  Where would you look?
  • How would you search for a job today?
  • What’s the role of data analytics and technology like blockchain, RPA in your day-to-day work? What is the role of judgment?
  • There is a misconception that the job of financial executives is only focused on numbers. Is this correct? Can you elaborate?
  • What are the challenges/solutions for working remotely and managing remotely? How do you handle working remotely and connecting with your team, especially if that is the way that you start your career?
