Navigating the job search as an international student or scholar can come with unique questions, constraints, and opportunities. This monthly working group provides a supportive, structured space for international graduate students and postdocs navigating the job search. Sessions combine practical job search strategies with reflective and hands-on activities inspired by Thriving as an International Scientist by Dr. Sonali Majumdar and life design frameworks. Each meeting includes brief guidance on a focused topic, followed by dedicated time to work on job search materials such as resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, and networking plans. Topics may include finding opportunities, researching employers, strengthening applications, and navigating international career considerations. Attend one session or join regularly to build clarity, confidence, and momentum in your job search.

Kick off your job search with strategies to uncover the best opportunities! In this session, we’ll share practical tips for identifying openings that align with your skills and goals.

Join us for a networking happy hour for Master's and PhD students and Postdoctoral scholars and Community Organizations. Learn about the CONNECT program and build your network for the future.
