Description
Doctoral graduates are hugely employable outside of academia, but don't always recognise this or know how to translate their expertise and skills to different types of employer.
This session for postgraduate researchers (PGRs) will guide you through a simple but effective framework for:
- Exploring professional values and interests
- Understanding the options open to you
- Self-auditing skills, strengths and knowledge
- Making a SMART personal career plan
