Career planning

Are you thinking about your next step? Here are some resources to help you—but of course, talking to your advisor, your peers, and people further in their career is also a good place to start!

Timeline: If you are considering getting your next job in academia, you should preferably start looking into this late spring/early summer a year before your current job finishes, as most application deadlines are in the fall of the year prior to the start of employment. 

A lot of useful information can be found on the Institute intranet:

Take also a look at Dan Margalit’s page on jobs (aimed at the US job market, but with much useful material, also for non-US applications)

There exists also subject specific workshops for job applicants.

Here are also a few tips from Matthias Grey and Chris Cave (GeoTop meeting June 24, 2021)
