In your first few years out of college you are forced to make a lot of decisions about your career. You may face the prospect of disliking your job/industry after only a few months, maybe you're considering further education, perhaps you want to know how to find professional development opportunities, or you're interested in going into a career different from what your degree is in.

This event, brought to you by the Northwestern Alumni Association and the NU Club of Seattle, will give you the opportunity to explore and discuss the following questions and more:

  • Can I quit my job and go into a new industry?
  • Should I stay with my company or look elsewhere?
  • When should I go back to graduate school?
  • How do I move up within my company?

About the Panelist

Meg Delaney ’14 graduated Northwestern with a degree in Radio, Television, Film, and then moved to New York to work at Nielsen as part of their Emerging Leaders Program. While in New York, she worked on Nielsen's Audience Insights team with music and books clients, and was a part of Nielsen's internal digital strategy team. After a year, Meg moved to Los Angeles to work on Nielsen's Content Testing team, doing primary research to test new TV pilots. She also worked on custom research projects for TV networks focused on advertising receptivity and audience segmentation. Two years later, Meg landed in Seattle where she works (remotely) for National Research Group, doing marketing and content strategy research for TV clients like Netflix, ABC, AMC, and TNT, and movie studios like Sony Pictures and Paramount Pictures.
