Postdoctoral Fellows
Welcome! Career Services works with the following postdoctoral fellows:
- Current Biomedical postdocs in Biomedical Postdoctoral Programs
- Current postdocs in Graduate Division of Arts and Sciences
- Current postdocs in the School of Engineering and Applied Science
Note: We are not able to see research associates or former postdocs, unless they are Penn alumi/ae.
On the left, you'll find information on how to connect with career advisors and links to an array of career resources. Depending on your area of interest, you may want to join one of our email lists to receive information about workshops, programs, jobs and internships.
During your time at Penn you can use our services whenever you need them. We encourage you to:
- Attend our events for new students to get information on how to make the most of our resources.
- Join us for workshops on a wide range of topics, from resumes and interviewing to offer negotiation and networking.
- Schedule a mock interview with career advisors to get feedback on your interview style and technique.
- Drop by for walk-ins to get answers from a career advisor for your quick questions.
- Set up an appointment to get your resume/CV and other job search materials reviewed and critiqued.
- Visit the funding resources section of our website to see what opportunities exist for your academic program.
- Participate in discussion panels on applying for academic jobs, and meet faculty who have been successful.
- Attend panel discussions on non-academic career options and take the opportunity to network with the speakers.
- Make use of our career planning resources as you consider your options during your degree program and after you are done.
- Download Career Services podcasts, such as Job Hunting in a Difficult Economy, or visit Career Services' Vimeo Channel.
FEATURED RESOURCE
Take advantage of this semester's Job Search Series to help you build the skills you need to be effective before and during your job search. Whether you are looking for advice on how to network online or in person, what to write in your cover letter, how to handle tricky interview questions, or what to do about negotiating offers, you will find a workshop to get you started. Learn the basics at the workshops and then set up an individual appointment with an advisor to discuss your unique questions. There is no need to register to attend these workshops, and PDF versions of any presentations given will usually be available on the calendar a few days after each workshop if you want access to the slides, or cannot make the workshop in person. Download the flyer HERE to see the dates and times for these workshops, or view our calendar page to see the complete list of programs, workshops, and career fairs that we offer this semester.
