What got you here won’t get you there! Getting you ready for work life after graduation [hosted by the Office for Graduate Education @ Harvard Medical School]

PhD and Master’s Students:

“This workshop is open to graduate students, but is particularly targeted at those getting ready to graduate and enter the workforce.  We strongly encourage graduating PhD and master’s students for this pilot on a new grad school-to-workforce workshop.

You have done the hard steps: finishing your degree and landing that job.

But are you ready for what’s next?

Being successful after graduate school requires more than just hard work and ambition, and the rules and expectations are often unwritten. In other words, in your next chapter…what got you here may not get you there.

In this session, we will equip you with the career management concepts and tools fundamental to successfully launching and navigating the next steps in your career.

This workshop will help you gain familiarity and approaches to managing…

• Networking: why, how, and when to build out your ecosystem
• Building your support network: understanding and identifying people who are the three legs of your success as mentors, evaluators, and sponsors
• Performance management: proactively managing your narrative
• Job, career, calling: dynamically defining what the next steps mean to you
• Career planning: building out your personal “spec sheet” plan to meet your long-term goals
• Business acumen: why you need to pay attention to business context, politics, and strategy

Light food, snacks and beverages will be provided.
