Bridging the gap from academia to industry requires adapting our frame of mind, discourse and posture to a new and sometimes unfamiliar audience! We will together - in two stand-alone and complementary one-day workshops - build your road map for change from academia to industry.

In this Workshop, you will together:

Share application and networking successes and challenges
Explore how to effectively communicate your uniqueness and talents
Maximise your changes of securing that interview
Role play the bilateral interview process : pitch and Q&A
Decide on the next milestone of your roadmap for success
Together we’ll refine your personalised strategy and action plan !

Approach

You will explore the best practice approach to applying and networking and hone your pitch and interview skills as you bridge the gap from academia to industry.
