Explore Careers

Although real estate, accounting and insurance are disparate industries, all offer a variety of job opportunities ranging from highly quantitative roles like real estate finance or actuarial science to careers that depend more heavily on interpersonal and communication skills such as sales and marketing.  Check out our  Vault Guides to learn more about options in these specific industries or try CareerExplorer, an interactive career assessment, to see your compatibility and learn more about over 800 careers.

Make Connections

In addition to conducting online research, it is important to talk to people actually working in the roles you are considering to learn more about what the work is actually like. Resources such as MyPenn (formerly QuakerNet) and LinkedIn can help you find Penn alumni working in fields of interest. Read more about how to make connections here.

You can find tips on preparing resumes and cover letters and interviewing in our “Learn How To…” section.
