Job application knowledge compact - VIRTUAL WORKSHOP

Description:

The methods and procedures in the recruitment process are changing through the use of the internet and new media - on both sides: Applicants and employers. 

Workshops on the topic of applying for jobs should therefore cover all aspects - and start with the topic of ‘Selecting job adverts or employers’. The reason is simple: most applications fail because doctoral candidates apply for jobs that are not suitable for them.

In general, the topic of AI is important - as scientific institutions are now also using algorithms to support personnel selection.

Goals: After the workshop (3 days)

• the participants will be able to design their personal application documents in a target group- and task-orientated way in every application context
• participants will be able to enter the active application phase on all current application channels
• participants are able to act in a target- and goal-orientated manner in the various oral interview contexts
• find their way through the abundance of job platforms and find the platforms that offer the most jobs for their professional goals
• participants can customise their own online presence (social media) for application purposes

Methods:

The participants work through all of the above steps in the application process using job adverts that match their profile as examples and receive feedback on their work.
