Career Management for Researchers

An interactive workshop for research staff and DPhil students to enable you to step back, consider future possible career paths, and identify what you have to offer to employers within, or beyond, academia.

Topics will include job satisfaction, your values, career motivations and transferable skills. Our focus will be on making the most of what you already have, opportunities to boost any core employability skills during your time at Oxford and how to articulate these to others, whether in person or in applications. We will also share top tips on effective, mutually-rewarding networking.

You will be encouraged to draw your insights together to begin a realistic personal career plan and to consider your next steps.

This session aims:

- To enable you to step back, and feel equipped to consider future possible career paths, – To identify what you have to offer to employers within, or beyond, academia

Lunch will be provided at 12.30 to close the workshop.
