Fall 2019 Seminar Series: Successful Job Search

The Graduate School, the Career Connections Center, and the Center for Stress Resistant Agriculture’s ExcelAGator program will host a Fall 2019 seminar series on entering the job market.

Designed for late-stage graduate students and postdocs, the series will focus primarily on non-academic careers, though some information will apply to academic job searches, too. Topics include:

§ Elevator Pitch
§ Networking and Building Connections
§ The Non-Academic Job Search
§ Curriculum Vitae/Résumé/Cover Letter
§ Interviewing Skills
§ Negotiating and Professional Skills

Seminar sessions run from 3 p.m. through 4:30 p.m. on all Wednesdays between October 16 and November 20. Participants are expected to attend all sessions. Those who successfully complete the series will receive a certificate of completion.

Limited seats are available, so you must apply. The application process opens September 9. Applicants will be admitted on a rolling basis, so apply early to guarantee a spot. To apply online, click on this link:
