Now more than ever, Ph.D.s work in a variety of career fields, leveraging their education and training to build meaningful careers after their degree or postdoc. But making the transition takes time—most job searches take 6+ months to explore career options, build a network, and apply strategically to postings.

So what can you do today to set yourself up for a successful job search?

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to make the most out of the Ph.D. Career Training Platform. Access to this platform means you don’t have to navigate the job search alone—you have access to a research-informed toolkit designed specifically to support graduate students and postdocs in both academic and nonacademic job searches.

By the end of this session, you’ll be able to

• Confidently navigate the Ph.D. Career Training Platform to support your academic or nonacademic job search
• Apply proven strategies to explore your career options
• Understand the timeline of a job search and take practical steps to get started today
