If you’re a PhD or postdoc planning to go on the job market this year, you probably have questions. What kinds of opportunities are available in the current climate? Will I be competitive for them? What should I do if my career plans recently changed? Career Services’ PhD Job Search Prep Camp will address these questions and more, ensuring you have the resources, skills, and confidence to tackle both the academic and non-academic job market.

Through a combination of workshops and faculty/alumni panels, we’ll help you understand how to best prepare for each step of the career exploration and job search process, from evaluating different kinds of employers and opportunities, to understanding job search timelines, to crafting your application materials. Whether you’re applying for faculty jobs, non-faculty jobs, or both, the PhD Job Search Prep Camp can help you present yourself as the strongest possible candidate and find opportunities that align with your skills, interests, and values.

Attendees are encouraged to make a one-on-one appointment with a Career Services advisor to receive targeted feedback on their job search strategy and documents. Check Handshake for available appointments!
