Remember when you leave, you have to sell your skills to an employer. They (or you) may not know what your area of expertise is yet but you will find your way to exactly where you are meant to be. Plan now for where you want to be in your career. Always review job descriptions to see if you will enjoy doing the job to see if it will get you where you need to be”- Jenni Lowry

“Now that I'm out and in the working world, I realize that SMF prepared me in ways that many others haven't been prepared. On one hand that's scary to think there are many people in this field who don't think from an anti-oppressive framework. Yet on the other hand it's amazing; because you get to be that change”- Kendra Scali

“You will hear this a LOT, but lean into the discomfort, and trust the process. SMF will give you skills that will benefit you in more ways than you can imagine, and I still am finding so many unexpected ways that I have benefitted from my years in this program”- Lydia Notten

“Best tip I have received is to know the 'bread and butter' of the career you want. Often people pick careers based on the highlights -- but what do the careers actually consist of everyday? Will the day-to-day be satisfying enough for you to be happy?”- Angela Underhill
