    Ziele

    The end of your doctorate is approaching or you would like to consider possible career steps at an early stage during your PhD. Questions arise such as:
    - Does it make sense for me to focus on an academic career?
    - Am I suitable for a professorship?
    - Are there alternatives to an academic career and what do they look like?

    This workshop offers you an insight in different career types, work areas and the possibility to reflect on your skills profile, taking into account job profiles.

    In the second part of the workshop, you will get the opportunity to perform an elevator pitch as preparation for forthcoming situations, e.g. career events with companies, job interviews, meetings with potential employers, networking at conferences.
