Hello everyone! My name is Mandee Rust and I am a Career Counselor here at Saint Louis University. I'm your new host working alongside some pretty great Student Interns, to bring you stories from the world of work. The Launch Pod: A Podcast by Saint Louis University's Career Services will cover career topics and stories to help you navigate your career journey. We will offer career-related tips, and information and we’ll share stories from Employers, Staff and Faculty Members, Students, and Alumni to help you prepare for life after SLU. Founded in 1818, Saint Louis University is one of the nation’s oldest and most prestigious Catholic institutions. Rooted in Jesuit values and its pioneering history as the first university west of the Mississippi River, SLU offers nearly 13,000 students a rigorous, transformative education of the whole person. At the core of the University’s diverse community of scholars is SLU’s service-focused mission, which challenges and prepares students to make the world a better, more just place.
