Expert Exchange

Make an appointment

Individual and Group Virtual Sessions with Creative Professionals

Expert Exchange offers students and alumni the opportunity to connect virtually, either individually or with a group, with creative professionals and Chicago business leaders about venture ideas and future careers. 

Held weekly during the fall and spring semesters, Expert Exchange is a great opportunity to gain industry insight and personalized career advice as well as answers to your specific questions.

 

Curious about how to prepare?

While it is not necessary to share your work or professional materials to an Expert Exchange meeting, we do suggest that you:

  • Research the experts and their industries.
  • Register to meet with an Expert.
  • Prepare questions for the Expert.
  • Please let us know at least 2 days before if you are unable to attend.

More questions about what to expect? Make an appointment with a CAPX advisor on Handshake or send us an email at careers@saic.edu
