Is Your College Student Thinking About Summer Yet?

A 45-Minute Conversation for Parents on Helping Students Launch Their Careers

It’s fall — the season when college students are settling into campus life. But for employers, it’s already summer recruiting season. Many internships and full-time roles are being filled months in advance — often before students even realize it’s time to start looking.

Join this 45-minute conversation designed especially for parents who want to support (without smothering!) their college-aged students as they navigate career decisions. You’ll gain practical insights on how to quietly plant seeds, ask the right questions, and coach from the sidelines — all in ways that encourage confidence rather than resistance.

What we’ll cover:

• The reality of the recruiting calendar — why “later” might already be too late

• The evolving role of students across their four college years

• What employers are really looking for (beyond GPA and résumés)

• How to help without hovering — questions that open doors rather than shut them

• Common parental biases that unintentionally limit options

• What’s possible: examples of how students find their path through small, intentional steps

This session will help you move from anxious observer to confident career ally — knowing how and when to nudge, support, and celebrate.

We’re in this together.
Think of it as a concierge guide to career development — for you and your student.
