Description:
Leaving academia and looking for a job in the industry is an important and sometimes difficult step. This fundamental career training enables you to master interviews competently and negotiate an adequate salary. It consists of live webinars and self-learning videos.
Content
• Preparation and phases of interviews
• Salary negotiation procedure
• Answering interviewer questions
In a self-study course, you get general information about your preparation for job interviews, including suitable clothing, time of arrival and research about the company in a self-study training. You learn more about the classical interview structure and receive advice for a professional self-introduction and special interview situations such as online or by telephone. Subsequently, a video seminar explains the right approach to a salary negotiation and how to avoid common mistakes. Additionally, you get to know alternative options to substitute a lower payment offer. In the follow-up live workshop we work out answers for typical questions a recruiter asks you during the interview.
Target Group:
International and German doctoral researchers and postdocs who have little application knowledge and are looking for a new employment in the next 12 months.
With your registration, you are required to accept the terms and conditions for participation.
