Applying for jobs can be an intimidating, time-consuming, and uncertain experience. This co-mentoring work session is designed to bring together graduate students and postdocs to share wisdom, ideas, and feedback with one another on job application materials for both academic and non-academic positions.

In an interactive, roundtable format, participants will both provide feedback on peers’ documents and receivefeedback on their own. Please bring 3 copies of one job application material (i.e., CV, teaching statement, diversity statement) on which you’d like to receive feedback from peers!

To attend this event, please sign up by April 10. Lunch will be provided!
