Industry Advisor Colleen McGowan is back to discuss important tips for biomedical engineers in the spring season of their job search and placement. Knowing what timeline you should follow for your first job out of college (especially as it gets closer to graduation) can be overwhelming and confusing, so we hope this episode helps bring some guidance and clarity to the process. Through this episode, Colleen and Devin cover what interview questions to prepare for in your interview, introduce ways to negotiate entry-level salaries, provide advice on how big of a net to cast when applying for jobs, and discuss how to network and build relationships with those that are already working in a role you're interested in.New episodes of The BME Grad Podcast are released every two weeks.

Have you ever thought about going to law school after graduating from a biomedical engineering undergraduate program? Meet one of our alumna, Audrey Cooke, who has done just that! In this episode, Audrey and Devin discuss how biomedical engineering and law intersect and how her undergraduate experience prepared her for her legal academic career. Other topics include how to transition from biomedical engineering to law school, how to prepare for the LSATs, and other valuable post grad advice from a recent graduate.
