Career Director - Amanda Tammen Petersen

Amanda works with students on life and career design & strategy, networking, personal branding, interviewing, salary negotiation, identifying their personal strengths and crafting grad school personal statements. She also works with students that want a career and students that plan on being a stay-at-home parent (to help them use their strengths intentionally while being a member of a community, whether that’s a school or local government, for example). Amanda's goal is to help students be as competitive leaving BYU as they are entering BYU. The Career Studio helps students with resumes, cover letters, and creating LinkedIn profiles.
