Why Networking Matters
Most opportunities don't come from job boards — they come from people. At ALPFA CSUN, we take networking seriously because we know it changes careers.
We create intentional spaces where you can meet professionals, practice your pitch, and build the kind of relationships that last well beyond graduation. Whether it's a casual mixer or a structured firm visit, every connection you make here is real.
Our chapter has direct relationships with some of the top firms and companies across finance, accounting, consulting, technology, and more — and we bring those opportunities directly to you.
Firm Tours
One of our most popular programs — firm tours take members inside the offices of top companies so they can see the environment, meet the teams, and understand what it really looks like to work there.
Past tour partners have included firms across public accounting, financial services, technology, and consulting. These visits go beyond a generic info session — they're curated experiences designed to show you what's possible.
Firm tours are reserved for active ALPFA CSUN members. Stay tuned through our weekly meetings and member emails for upcoming dates.
