Monday, February 5
3:30 pm  - 5:30 pm
1111 Genetics-Biotechnology Center Auditorium

Join guest speaker Dr. Anne Krook for this two-hour session where you will learn how non-academic employers think about graduate students as potential employees, how to get ready for the non-academic job market while you are still in graduate school, and how to conduct a job search. We will also review a tool (provided after the session) that assesses all your skills – not just academic ones – and review a resume and discuss how to write yours. All graduate students are welcome to attend.

This event is sponsored by the Graduate School Office of Professional Development.

If you need an accommodation to attend or participate in an event, please contact the Office of Professional Development by sending an email to gspd@grad.wisc.edu or by calling 608-265-9704, preferably at least a week in advance of the event.
