The ROCS Podcast

Director of North Carolina Operations. With a wealth of experience in the private, government and higher education sectors, Stuart brings with him a deep passion for helping recent graduates connect with employers. I'm excited to have him on the show so our listeners can learn more about his story as he shares his knowledge with us.

We'll discuss ways to customize your resume and cover letter and quantify your experience with rock-solid examples of your contributions.

We share some of the highlights of 2022 and shed a bit more light on who we are behind the scenes here at ROCS.

Kyler went to James Madison and had lined up multiple internships during her time there. She was a student-athlete then and now she’s working as the Director of Recruitment for Northwestern Mutual in Reston, Virginia.

Today, I have with me Meredith Leutbecker who is someone I met a few years ago and we’ve stayed in touch ever since. She also has a passion for helping recent college grads navigate early adulthood. She remembers what her experience was like and talks a lot about building relationships, being true to yourself in interviews, and what you can bring to the table. 

Today, I have with me Kaleb Lewis. Kaleb is the Director of Career Services for the School of Business at George Mason University. Kaleb assists students and alumni with career counseling, internship opportunities, and employer connections, and I know you’ll enjoy hearing the advice he has to share with all of you.

Our mission is to help you find a job out of college and thrive in the real world. One interview with ROCS can open up a lot of doors. The best part of my job is to see where our “ROCStars” go after we place them in their entry-level positions.

ROCS Alumni Success Story - Against All Odds with Caitlin Gunning I wanted to introduce our special guest, Caitlin Gunning. She is a close friend of mine, and we met a few years ago when she was interning at ROCS and we have stayed in touch ever since.

Stephanie Zimmermann who is a local business leader here in the Northern Virginia area shares her story and advice for new entrepreneurs. She went to George Mason and is still really involved with the university today. She’s a council member for the Center of Innovation and Entrepreneurship program at the School of Business and an Advisory Board Member for the Women In Business Initiative.

ROCS Grad Staffing Podcast. For this episode, we are going to assume you’ve been given the green light to take time off and I want to make sure you’re setting yourself and your team up for success so you can enjoy your time away.

We’ll primarily be talking about what to take time off for, how to request it, general best practices, and more! If you’re in your first year at a new job, this episode is for you.

Everything from interviews to resumes, from asking questions to standing out from the competition, this episode is a great crash course for many of the topics we’ve covered in the past
