About This Event
How do you walk into an interview in hijab with confidence? How do you ask for time and space to pray, and what do you do when there isn’t any? How do you get through Ramadan with deadlines, finals, and a full schedule, or network when the event is a happy hour?
Our panelists have been the only Muslim, and sometimes the only woman, in the room. They’ll share what they learned the hard way, then the floor is yours. Bring your questions about any industry, any stage, anything you’ve been wondering about.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
Muslim women in high school or college. Whether you go to CSUF or not, you’re welcome to join. Stick around after the panel for food and networking.

YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH
- Real answers on showing up in hijab, making time to pray, and getting through Ramadan at work, from women who’ve done it
- The words to ask for what you need, whether that’s prayer space, a schedule change, or a seat at the table
- A clearer picture of what to do now, in high school or college, to set yourself up for the career you want
- New connections with Muslim women students from across campuses and the professionals who’ve been where you are
