Networking isn’t just about exchanging contact information—it's about creating meaningful connections that can lead to life-changing opportunities. To help you achieve success, here are five tips to navigate and stand out at Industry Night: 1.🎙Craft a Compelling Elevator Pitch: Prepare a 30-second summary about yourself highlighting your studies, strengths, and career aspirations.

Understand their goals, recent achievements, and challenges. This preparation will help you ask informed questions and make a memorable impression. 3.❓Engage Through Smart Questions: Instead of general queries, ask specific ones like, “What’s the next big step for your company’s growth?” or “How do your team’s dynamics drive success?” This shows your interest goes beyond surface level. 4.✍Personalize Your Follow-Up: Send a personalized thank-you note or LinkedIn message within 24 hours of your meeting.

Grateful thanks to Marcel Skolimowski Cert RP of Sigmar Recruitment, to Zoe Coghlan of Intel Corporation and to Tony Daly PhD and Carol O'Meara from Pfizer for discussing how to Target Industry Jobs as a PhD, hosted by MTU Careers | Cork Campuses today. Excellent advice to MTU researchers. Here are a few takeaways: employers look at candidates holistically - all your skills and experience is valued and consider your PhD journey as work experience, as you are developing a wide range of skills while doing it. Emotional intelligence is key to building relationships at work and to contributing to a positive workplace culture; prepare to share in interviews examples of how you overcame obstacles and international students are succeeding in building careers in Ireland, so go ahead and apply. #researchcareers #careers #mtu #futurecareers #research #PhD

I am honored that I got invited to speak about my experiences with the MSCA post-doctoral fellowships and the road to a successful application! Don't expect unicorns and rainbows (i.e., magic solutions to receiving funding)! Instead, you'll get my experiences and a real-life take on how I have navigated (and still navigate) the challenges (and successes!!) of the funding landscape in academia... Some things I hope to highlight: where to start, how to identify collaborators (PIs), where to get help, how to deal with reviews, etc. But also, please bring all your great questions!
