At CareerVillage, we prioritize ensuring students receive advice from professionals with similar backgrounds - whether based on demographics, gender, location, etc. The goal of this bonus activity is to check in with your students to see if they feel supported, understood, and represented on CareerVillage.org. This short (2 minute) survey linked here is designed to assess student sentiments on this topic so that we can know if action needs to be taken to better serve your students.

Note: We administer this survey to all students on CareerVillage quarterly to monitor this balance.
