Selling your Transferrable Skills in Resumes and Interviews - Grad Edition
Friday, October 18, 2024 10:30to11:30
Brown Student Services
3600 rue McTavish, Montreal, QC, H3A 0G3, CA
“Selling” yourself is a skill that doesn’t come naturally to most people. Like many skills, however, you can hone it with practice! If you are a graduate student or postdoc looking to transfer your skills to a career outside of academia, join this interactive workshop to practice communicating your value as a skilled professional.
Working together through interactive scenarios, we will :
- Identify common transferrable skills developed through academic training (e.g., communication skills, project management skills, problem-solving skills)
- Practice writing impactful resume bullet points that translate academic outputs and experiences into skills you can use in a range of careers
- Practice mapping out compelling answers to skills-focused interview questions
