As a PhD exploring career options, one of the most important things to understand is that academic and nonacademic employers value very different aspects of PhD training and experience.

This means that to job search effectively — in academia or beyond — graduates need to understand what each type of employer is looking for and adopt a strategy accordingly.

This webinar is designed for doctoral students, PhDs, and postdocs from all academic disciplines who are wondering:

• How is academic hiring different from nonacademic hiring?
• What do nonacademic employers look for in a candidate, and how will that affect my job search?
• Why do I need to focus my job search on a specific career pathway?

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