Proctor & Gamble’s FIRST Conference

Procter & Gamble has designed this conference to give African American, Hispanic/Latino, and Native American Ph.D. scientists a broad overview of research in industry.

P&G is always looking for the best and brightest from universities and colleges around the world. With a variety of options across all of our function areas, you’ll find an opportunity to work on real business challenges with some of the world’s best-known brands. That’s what we call a career-starter.

Focusing on Industrial Recruitment of Scientific Talent is a Proctor & Gamble sponsored conference targeted for PhD and Postdocs in STEM fields to gain a deeper understanding about industrial research careers. Proctor & Gamble in collaboration with its minority scientists and the PhD Recruiting office developed the conference 25 years ago. This is a recruitment based conference to get students introduced to industrial based research.

The Conference will be held September 20-23, 2015, in Cincinnati, Ohio (all expenses paid), but you must apply quickly; applications are due by June 30, 2015.

Paul Salce: STEM Employment Analyst

Paul Salce, STEM Employment Analyst at Career Services, takes the time to share some tips for our students.

SDSU CS: What school/s did you attend and what degree/s were earned?

 I am originally from Chicago, and attended Loyola University of Chicago, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in History.  Most folks are surprised I was a history major since I have hired/counseled STEM students for 20+ years, but in my second job at Arthur Andersen & Company (now Accenture) I actually programmed for four years.

–

SDSU CS: What’s your favorite service we offer and why?

 Information sessions, employer panels, any activities that allow students to network with employers.  I found 2 of my last 3 employment opportunities through networking.

–

SDSU CS: What is an offered service that you notice students don’t use as often as they should?

Interviewing workshops, Mock Interviews, and any other ways to practice interviewing.  Most students concentrate on a great resume, but the resume will only get you the interview.  You need to ace the interview to actually get hired.

–

SDSU CS: What’s your #1 tip for resumes?

Absolutely no typos or grammatical errors.  Most hiring managers won’t even review a resume once they identify a typo.  Don’t rely only on a spell checker, but have someone review your resume to ensure there are no typos.

–

SDSU CS: What’s your tip for students when they first land the job/internship?

Continue to show your interest in the position by asking questions, networking with other workers, and looking for additional work.  Many students lose their enthusiasm once they have the internship, and their lack of enthusiasm may cost them the opportunity to convert to a full time employee upon graduation.

–

SDSU CS: Any additional comments for our Aztecs?

Use your network with other students to help you find a position.  If you know someone from class who recently accepted a position with an organization, see if they will refer your resume for positions at the organization.  Most companies look at employee referrals before looking at general applications, and your friend may even earn a referral fee for submitting your resume (many companies pay a referral fee for full time positions, but rarely for internships).

Here are some testimonials from former and current interns:

“Working with TAG is like getting paid to earn an MBA…and apply it. The leadership at TAG care about you as a person, and you will finish your internship not only as an elite businessman/woman, but as a better person in life in general. You will work hard, be expected to grow and will have firsthand access to outstanding mentors in every area of business. To put it in perspective, hundreds of CEOs across the nation are paying thousands of dollars every month in order to get advice from them. Working for TAG altered the course of my life for the better and I am deeply thankful to have been given the chance to invest my time, heart and mind in this organization.” Zach Luczynski, San Diego State University

“Applying my knowledge I absorbed from school to real life brought everything I learned to full circle, and has propelled me to the position that I am in today.  The best part of the program is that TAG always put education first, not just at school but in real life. We are constantly learning and evolving, and it keeps things interesting. I am privileged to retain with me the commitment and culture I learned from TAG’s internship program throughout my professional and personal life.” Nancy Ma, San Diego State University

 “TAG’s internship program is an amazing experience! I have learned just as much about business through my time in this program as my time in the classroom. The management team spent valuable time not only training me on my internship position but they educated me on every aspect of the business. I felt that I made an immediate contribution to TAG and my experience will benefit me the rest of my career.” AJ Odish, current TAG Intern
