As a result of the feedback and suggestion from our members, we have
added an increased networking capability to www.AndersenAlumni.net - the Alumni
Directory.
This will allow each member to have his or her page where he or she can list what
office they last worked at, dates of employment, group, title, what company they
are at now, what type of work they are doing now, and much more information. This
will help our members reconnect with lost alums for networking and job searching
benefits and create new contacts at other companies.
We’ve made it easier for you to tap into a network in your industry, locate a possible
mentor, make a career change, find a service provider, promote your business, and
so much more. Joining the Alumni Directory will allow you
to type in a message to anyone that you send an email to. Without membership in
the Alumni Directory, you are not able to type a message to anyone that you contact,
view other profiles, or use the advanced search function.
- If you are looking to work at "ABC Company", instead of sending in a blind resume,
you will be able to find someone and contact someone who works there. This will
allow you to get the inside story on the culture, perks and what really goes on
at the companies you want to work for. Search by company name, find current employees
and get the real deal on the companies you're targeting. Additionally, instead of
having to make cold calls or proposals for your new organization, you can find someone
who is in your industry and contact them. All of these people will have at least
one thing in common: an Andersen background.
- Do you have a business or a business idea that you want to let others know about?
The Alumni Directory can help you promote and publicize your organization and create
new business relationships.
- The Alumni Directory will allow you to find a member with the expertise, connections
or resources that you seek. You will be able to search by Andersen office last worked
at, group name, current employer, city, state, industry, certifications, and much
more.
- The Alumni Directory provides a way to identify a company who can help solve a
business challenge. When you need to find a business partner, why not start with
one where you already have a connection?
- The Alumni Directory helps answer the question “whatever happened to…?”.
Most job seekers already know the importance of networking. Whether from formal
professional networking groups or casual friend-of-a-friend connections, 60% will
find a job through networking. Other savvy professionals use their networks for
finding answers, advice, or leads. Whatever you're trying to do, put the Andersen
network to work for you by using the Alumni Directory on AndersenAlumni.Net.

SUCCESS STORIES
"I can tell you that AndersenAlumni.Net has been responsive to our requests and has worked with us throughout our very complex procurement process so that we could utilize this medium as a recruiting source. In the few weeks we have posted opportunities on your site we have gotten quality results and the access to their resume database has been fruitful. I would give AndersenAlumni.Net a high recommendation."
Jane Myers
Regional Recruiter
American Express Tax and Business Services
"The last 30 days netted me two placements from the database. Both jobs were $200k plus and the candidates came right from your system. I will definitely continue to use this site for my recruiting needs, and I will certainly pass the word onto others. Thank you."
Michael Wing
Recruiter
Loewenstein & Associates
"I used the AndersenAlumni.Net web-site for a search we were doing and found a couple of candidates and made an offer to one within 1 week."
John Liacone
Manager, Staffing Solutions Practice
RSM McGladrey
"I hadn't worked at Andersen for years, and I had lost track of many of these individuals. Not only have I reconnected with a few past coworkers, I have also been able to assist them in their time of need. I now find myself "on the other side of the desk", placing IT resources at various well-known clients in the Chicago area. One major benefit of tapping this type of resource is the overall professional package I usually get from ex-Andersen people. That cannot be over valued. Neither can the intentions or mission of this website."
Jeff Messacar
Former Andersen employee
"With the help of AndersenAlumni.Net, I was able to get our name out to a large audience in a professional manner by sending out an email to more than 9,000 members. Andersen was very helpful all through the process and very timely. The email sent out definitely helped build our brand and recognition, but most importantly delivered results. I would highly recommend using AndersenAlumni.Net."
