CDM Smith's Reboot Re-Entry Program
Two steps forward, two steps back. Sometimes detours happen in our well-planned lives. If you have had a break in your science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) career and are now ready to get back in the game, let CDM Smith help you restart your career by participating in our career re-entry program. Partnering with the Society of Women Engineers and iRelaunch, we are offering a 16-week program each January through April for those who left their STEM career for 2+ years and are now wanting to return. This is a paid, full time temporary opportunity to help you train and rejoin peers in your field.
An unmatched employee experience
CDM Smith's CEO, Tim Wall, introduced our Reboot Re-Entry Program at a Women's Leadership Network meeting in our Boston headquarters and was joined by guest speaker, Carol Fishman Cohen, Chair and Co-founder of iRelaunch.

The Reboot Experience
Sara Varvarigos
Transportation Planner
"Reboot provided the opportunity to get back to work without a career break on my resume working against me. I’m grateful for supportive colleagues, managers and mentors who provided on-the-job training, career development guidance and everything I needed to brush up on my skills."
Sarah Scarff
Environmental Scientist
"After having children, I took a 3-year career break. Originally from Australia, I was adjusting to life in the U.S. and didn’t have a professional network here to help me get back to work. I'm grateful for the Reboot Re-Entry Program for providing this opportunity and I’m excited to continue my career at CDM Smith."
