About Rachel Maida
As a Career Coach for the College of Communications, my goal is to help BU students reach their full potential. As I work to find the most effective strategies for a successful job or internship search, I strive to provide ongoing support that continues even after a student leaves our meeting.
Utilizing my bachelor’s degree in communication and master’s degree in Higher Education, I’m deeply passionate about elevating students holistically while guiding them toward their next steps. I am genuinely thrilled to support BU students in the College of Communications as they embark on their unique career journeys.

Advice to students: A career path isn’t always a straight line and that’s the fun of it. Take advantage of internship opportunities since they can reveal what you enjoy or, more importantly, what you don’t!
