Why attend?
This day is designed to provide face-to-face interactions with your potential future colleagues.
By prioritizing tailored conversations based on your interests, expertise and skills, we hope you will be able to get an idea of what kind of projects you could be working on at each company, as well as understanding the scope and requirements of roles within different industries. In addition, learning about potential career trajectories inside the company will help you make an educated choice when it comes to stepping outside of academia.
These interactions will help you build a relationship with actual individuals inside companies, giving you a unique insight into the people and culture as well. Whether you're a 1st-year PhD or at any stage in your academic journey, this event is invaluable for laying the groundwork and establishing connections for future career prospects.
