Rollins recognizes that many of our alumni have been affected by the recent wave of federal layoffs. The Office of Advancement and Alumni Engagement has compiled resources for Rollins alums who are now entering a career transition. Below you will find links to recorded webinars, job boards, resume templates, names of alumni who offer professional coaching and financial planning, and more. If you would like to recommend a resource or have a service to offer, please email us at sphalumni@emory.edu.
