BEAM: What does meaningful work mean to you?

Are you considering different career paths, wondering what might be a good fit, or just want more information about yourself to help you make decisions? If these questions resonate for you, try the Meaningful Work Kit! We will work together on an interactive assessment that helps you identify the values, skills, and elements of work culture most important to you. Join fellow Stanford students for a hands-on exercise and meaningful conversation, and leave with a tangible set of career priorities to help bring you clarity and shape your choices. You'll have a clearer sense of what makes you thrive, what meaningful work looks like for you, and what values are guiding you right now. The Meaningful Work Kit is a tool that is helpful for students at any stage of their educational journey: from frosh to seniors to PhDs and postdocs. The majority of our time will be spent individually with the interactive card sort. We will also spend some time in breakout rooms discussing how you might integrate and apply this information to a current or future role (e.g., interviews, application materials, and evaluating opportunities).
