Download seminar flyer here.

How are you uniquely qualified to build a rewarding career out of your interests, skills, and experience? What can you do to expand your current skill set? What job do you want to do next? As a researcher navigating the early stages of your career, your answers to these questions may shift with time. Therefore, it’s critical for you to periodically re-evaluate your goals, they need to be defined and they should align with your strengths and interests. In two webinars, Dr Charlotte Hurry will guide you through the process of proactively managing your career by identifying your transferable skills, what you need from a job and what steps you can take to advance your career. It is now time to proactively manage your future career.
