OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Identifying and Translating Your Research Skills to Impress Your Future Employer
Are your research skills and experience valuable beyond academia? The answer is ‘yes’! It’s just a matter of packaging them in a format that employers beyond academia will understand. In this in-person session, we will provide tools for identifying your professional skills and converting your research experience into strong applications.
This session will focus on applications for positions beyond academia only.
Session objectives:
Provide an overview of the desired employability skills sought by employers outside of academia
Work through tools and exercises for identifying your existing skills and experience
Provide a brief overview of presenting skills within job application materials
