Learning outcomes

Students will understand the current job market prospects for PhD researchers in Finland and will be able to express more in details their strengths, skills and values in the job application process, and have examples they can use in job applications.

They will know strategies to find possible job openings and contact employers and have a job hunting plan with concrete actions to take. They will understand the concept of transferable skills, have an overview of their own skills and network and know how to talk about their skills to non-academic employers. They will have prepared a CV that can be used outside of Academia and understand how to write a good motivation letter. They will understand how a job interview is conducted in Finland and understand how to prepare for the job interview. They will have practiced their interview skills.

General description

The focus is on developing a broader perspective that extends also to outside of Academia (though not exclusively). The course fits for all Doctoral Researchers in all disciplines and does not require prior knowledge. It can be done in all stages of the PhD work and researchers are recommended not to wait until the last stage.
