We got to speak to international alumni that work in the US currently and across different industries. The alumni shared a bit about their international background, time at Carleton, and post-college experience which has helped shape their career path. They spoke about the processes international students have to go through with H-1B visas, lottery system, and the OPT/CPT. The featured panelists included:
- Aman Panda ’18, (Computer Science/Mathematics/Music Performance) Position/Employer: Software Engineer @ Meta
- Claire Tagoe ’18, (Computer Science/Women’s and Gender Studies) Position/Employer: Founding Software Engineer @ Kable
- Charlie Liu ’11, (Economics/Mathematics) Position/Employer: Co-Founder & COO @ Sora Union
- Yirong Zhu ’09, (Chemistry/Biochemistry) Position/Employer: Hematologist Oncologist @ Northwest Oncology and Hematology
ISL would like to thank everyone who attended the career panel and to thank the panelists for their contribution and advice.
