Drexel Pro Tip: Take advantage of all the resources on campus beyond just your classes. Whether it’s joining a student organization, going to career workshops, or connecting with alumni, the more you get involved, the more you’ll get out of your Drexel experience.

Co-Op History: Controller at JPMorgan Chase & Co; Private Wealth Management at Goldman Sachs & Co

Hi, my name is Sahil! I’m currently in my fourth year, majoring in Finance and Economics. I’ve always loved being involved in the Drexel community, whether as a Peer Leader or Camp Business Counselor, because giving back to the community that has helped me grow is so rewarding. I wanted to become a CPL because I’ve developed strong skills in resume building, networking, and the co-op search process, and I’m excited to use my experience to help other students. Outside of Drexel, you can find me trying new restaurants, hiking, or spending time with my dog.

Talk to me about:

  • Resume development and how to make your experiences stand out
  • Networking tips for building meaningful connections
  • Strategies to set yourself up for success before co-op applications open
  • How to make the most of your co-op experience, both professionally and personally
