Dear PhDs, post-docs, and other temporary scientific employees,

Are you exploring career options after your time as temporary scientific staff? DION is excited to host a Career Day Seminar designed to help you navigate job opportunities in Norway! DION has invited Dr. Martin Bjerke and Dr. Yaolin Ge, who recently completed their PhD and successfully transitioned from academia into industry.  They will share their experiences and practical advice that can make a difference in the job hunt: 

  • Insights on navigating job opportunities in industry.
  • Experience sharing about transitioning from academia to industry, and key factors to focus on during the hiring process.

 Attendees will also have the opportunity to ask questions during the Q&A session that follows.
