Your postdoctoral experience has equipped you not only with specialized expertise in your discipline but also with a strong transferable skill set that may be applied to a range of careers. At Yale, there are many ways to learn about the diverse paths that postdoctoral scholars and others have taken outside of the academy and to explore opportunities open to them.
Yale’s Office of Career Strategy provides postdoctoral scholars with the opportunity to explore career options, develop professional skills and experiences, and conduct a rewarding job search. Be sure to review their events calendar frequently for upcoming workshops, alumni panels, and employer events, and make an appointment with an advisor for personalized advice on your career development journey.
