Join the Buddy Program if you are looking for:

  • An uplifting community that supports personal and professional growth

  • New friends/networking opportunities with fellow SJSU students

  • A glimpse into the life of a SHRM officer

  • Friendly, lighthearted competition

The Buddy Program is a semester-long program where SHRMies are paired with a SHRM officer, and form a friendship that supports each other personally and professionally.

Our program is designed to create meaningful friendships, while also showing the “Day in the Life of an Officer”. Although our officers often put on a professional presence for events, they also love to have fun and share their interests outside of SHRM@SJSU!

Not to mention, our Buddy Program includes some friendly competition. We implemented a “Buddy Point System” for the time an officer/member pairing spends together. Bonus points can also be awarded through completing Buddy Challenges.

The officer/member pairings with the most points will win a big prize at the end of the semester!
