New website about Academic Careers

The University of Manchester Careers Service have just launched a new site which is intended to help PhD students and early career researchers to get a better understanding of what an academic career entails, how to get one and how to succeed in one.

The website is open to all researchers from any university or discipline. It answers many questions about how to make it as an academic.

The site contains plenty of video clips of academics and early career researchers, as well as information about the different stages of an academic career and tips for finding jobs, applying for them and succeeding in interviews.

Visit the site here.

  1. Thanks Jo - I'm still trying to work out how to send an e-mail about the new site to our AGCAS colleagues to let them know it's out there (e-mails keep getting rejected!), so anything you can do to help spread the word is appreciated.

    Cheers

  3. Here you provide some information about academic careers. It is usually considered to pertain to remunerative work. Career Assessments can help individuals identify and better articulate their unique interests, values, and skills. Thanks a lot!
