Join Recent Phi Beta Kappa Inductees at Our Annual Key Connections Events!
 

Since 2017, The Phi Beta Kappa Society has partnered with our associations in cities across the country for Key Connections, an event series to welcome recent inductees and members who might have recently relocated. These events offer a chance to network and connect in the spirit of Phi Beta Kappa's founding and emphasis on friendship and fellowship. 
 
This year, Phi Beta Kappa plans on conducting a virtual version of Key Connections due to the constraints placed on in-person gatherings by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our National Office will be hosting a virtual Key Connections event on Thursday, September 10th, 2020. Please continue to check this page for more information as it develops.

A number of our local Phi Beta Kappa Associations will also be hosting virtual Key Connections events in September and October – look for more information soon! For a list of participating associations, please see the list below. If you have questions for your local association, you can find their contact information here. Questions? Contact Ann McCulloch.

FAQ: ΦBK and Your Career

How do I list PBK on my resume?
We recommend listing Phi Beta Kappa as an achievement with your undergraduate degree. For example:

            College of William and Mary
            Bachelor of Science, Biology Magna Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kappa

You can also list your membership in an “Honors” or “Membership” section if you maintain one.

What’s the best way to convey the value of my liberal arts and sciences degree?
That’s a good question! A liberal arts and sciences education teaches a person to think critically, a skill that is applicable in any field or position. For more on the facts of the matter, visit our online toolkit.

Can you connect me with another PBK member in my field?
LinkedIn is the best platform to find other members in your field. Be sure to join the PBK members-only LinkedIn group so you can directly message other members.

I have a job opening and want to share it with other PBK members. How do I do that?
You can post jobs directly to the LinkedIn group. We will share select opportunities on our Twitter feed using #PBKCareerCorner.
