Associate Director - Office of Career Services, The Fletcher School

Hi, DC Fletcher Alumni!

As you may or may not know, after nine years of extraordinary service to the Fletcher school, Tamara Golden has decided it is time to change coasts. She is headed to the University of California at San Diego (UCSD) where she will be joining the career office for their school of international affairs. We will miss her greatly, but understand her strong desire to leave behind the snow (and snow shovel, ice scrapers, snow boots and parka).

Her position is now posted on the Tufts website (Job Requisition Number 39465). I would love to have a Fletcher alum join the OCS. The job description is listed below. If anyone is interested, please apply through the Tufts website (that is an absolute requirement) and send me a copy of your resume and cover letter so that I can make sure HR has you in the system.

Thanks,
Phillip
