DESCRIPTION:Frau  Caroline Ketting (Research Academy / Graduiertenzentrum TU Dortmund)
Postdoc-Workshop: What qualities do I have and how do I sell then? Transferring academic soft skills to non-academic careers
Postdocs of all research fields of the UA Ruhr universities
After completing their doctorate, many are faced with the challenge of embarking on a new career outside academia or in science management. In contrast to the scientific job market, however, they cannot score points with their specialist expertise alone, and the job market even seems to have little interest in some specialist areas.

The good news is: Postdocs often have more to offer than they themselves realize. Essential are the broader competences and so-called "soft skills" that develop through research, teaching and
other roles as a scientist.

Learn how to identify these competencies and effectively communicate them in job applications and interviews. This impulse talk will provide practical insights to help you position yourself as a strong candidate in non-academic roles. Primarily focused on the German job market.

Registration deadline: 11 September 2026
