Event Description:

Are you preparing materials to go on the market this spring? This workshop is designed to demystify the process, and to address the specific needs and questions of those from both the sciences and humanities who are embarking on this exciting (if a little scary.) part of the graduate student experience. Though the job search can be a daunting process for students still in the midst of research and teaching obligations, this workshop is a resource to support you in this effort, to help you identify and effectively present yourself as a candidate to the academic job of your future.
