Aurora | Beyond the Professoriate: Here’s what NOT to do in 2022 and your job search

As a busy graduate student or postdoc, it can be tempting to delay preparing for a career until after you’ve completed your degree or postdoc. There’s so much to do to successfully finish your research, publish papers, and defend your dissertation.

But did you know it can take 6 or more months of active job searching to land a job? This is why it’s important to schedule time in your schedule to lay the foundation for a successful job search starting today. In this webinar, L. Maren Wood, PhD (Founder, Beyond the Professoriate) will help you design a plan for a professional job search for 2022. After attending this webinar, you’ll be able to:

– Identify the biggest mistakes PhDs make in their job search.
– Summarize the components and timelines of an effective job search.
– Develop SMART goals and a plan of action for your job search.
– Identify resources in Aurora that can help you in your job search.

The webinar will be held via Zoom webinar in Aurora and will be recorded. Advanced registration is required.
