-who are working in NYC and across the US in non-academic roles, including pharma/biotech (bench and non-bench), medical devices, tech, consulting, and finance;

-who navigated visa sponsorship (O1, OPT, H1B, etc.) or green card options to be a candidate for these jobs;

-who represent a variety of countries; and

-who will speak about their experiences being on the job market, and how they are enjoying their career so far.
