Headhunt Your Own Dream Job

What do I need to learn when I search for jobs in industry? And how important is writing an industry CV, designing a LinkedIn profile, and networking? Within academia we acquire many important skills that are directly transferable to industry but the trick is to learn how to articulate those to skills in industry. To become a successful job seeker, it is essential to realize what the industry needs, what job titles are relevant to you and, above all, start to realize what lies beneath each job title.

‘What trends are on the market at the moment?’ ‘Where are the future jobs?’ ‘And how can I sell myself to a job even if I do not have a 100% matching profile according to my LinkedIn and CV profile?’

In this seminar you will learn more about your transferable skills, get examples of CVs from a branding perspective, and understand why LinkedIn is so important. You will also get practical tips on how to build a Career Development Plan.
