Going Beyond LinkedIn: How to Unlock the Hidden Job Market for Ph.D. Students
Beyond the Professoriate

Nearly 70% of companies hire through employee referrals. These job openings may not be posted online, or employers may choose not to advertise them publicly. Instead, they approach employees and internal networks as trusted sources to help fill positions.
As a job seeker, you need to find a way to break into this “hidden” job market. For Ph.D.s it is one of the most effective ways to get hired quickly, make a career transition, or land your first non-academic job.
Join the Beyond Prof team for this webinar on how to unlock the hidden job market. This webinar is designed for doctoral students, Ph.D.s, and postdocs from all academic disciplines who are wondering:
- Why do I need to think about the hidden job market?
- How do I access the hidden job market and connect with people?
- Who do I connect with and how do I grow my network?
Duke graduate students can attend this workshop for free, including access to replays of events when available, through The Graduate School's subscription to Beyond the Professoriate. Advance registration is required.
