Spider Shadowing Form
Spider Shadowing is a program designed to connect Richmond students with alumni and employers for half- or full-day job shadowing experiences during winter and summer breaks.
Why Offer a Shadowing Opportunity?
Job shadowing experiences provide students with rich learning opportunities as they explore career options, while serving as an early talent identification tool for employers seeking interns and full-time job candidates.
Employers who offer shadowing experiences:
- gain exposure to recruiting practices at Richmond
- learn firsthand about the value of a Richmond education through interaction with current students
- meet ACS staff who can assist in developing a recruiting strategy for their organization
- increase their organization’s recognition among Richmond students, particularly first-years and sophomores, by building their brand on campus
Alumni who offer shadowing experiences:
- give back to Richmond by providing students with advice, ideas, and expertise in their career searches
- strengthen their connection to Richmond through relationships formed with current Richmond students
- gain access to resources for hiring Spiders for internships and jobs within their organizations
- demonstrate the value of the Spider Network to the next generation of Spider alumni
