Beyond your bench skills

Oct. 22, 2024 | Duration: 1 hr. 4 mins.

Building transferable skills and a strong network are two of the most important — yet often ignored — aspects of graduate and postdoctoral training. Hear two different perspectives on the importance of transferable and networking skills to landing an industry job: from an industry scientist who navigated his way through and out of the academic system, and from a life science recruiter who has helped place thousands of scientists into industry roles. No matter the stage of your academic career, it’s never too early — or too late — to start building and honing these skills.
