Jennifer Perez Assistant Director of Campus Talent

I graduated from Florida International University during summer of 2015. I had many interests and jumped around a few majors. Feeling lost, I looked towards the career center at FIU for a sense of direction. The career center at FIU provided me with the tools and resources I needed to design my path. Eager to graduate, I decided to major in Interdisciplinary Studies, minored in Hotel/Lodging Management and utilized my connections to land a campus position as a student assistant at The Office of International Affairs; the job that jumpstarted my career in higher education. I didn’t know it then but every person I met on my journey throughout my undergrad led me one step closer to where I am now.
