Strategies for Career Success Inside and Outside of the Academy (Session 2)

This short course will help you prepare for a job search both inside and outside of the academy. We will move through the stages of exploration, networking, and job seeking that comprise a successful professional development pathway. This course is open to graduate students at all stages of their professional journey. We will help you use the process of self-discovery to tell your professional story in networking and job search contexts. We will explore how to use current tools, including LinkedIn and ChatGPT, to supercharge your career research and focus your efforts in productive directions. We will also talk about how to negotiate and manage difficult conversations with mentors and others around career paths and professional choices. The focus of this short course will be on developing strategies for career readiness and producing concrete takeaways. 4 Sessions (2 hours each): July 8, 10, 15, 17 (10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. EST)
