Navigating career choices as a postdoc can feel overwhelming, but a thoughtful, structured approach can make the process more manageable and empowering. This interactive workshop will guide participants through self-exploration activities to identify skills, values, and interests. From there, we will introduce resources and strategies for career exploration, as well as practical approaches to the job search process. We will emphasize how to align your personal values and address skill gaps. Towards the end of the workshop, participants will begin building a strategic professional development plan designed to prepare them for their career(s) of choice within a realistic time frame. Attendees will leave with greater clarity, practical tools, and concrete next steps to move confidently toward their next professional step.

Speaker: Fatima Saldaña Morales, Ph.D., assistant director for postdoctoral affairs, University of Virginia
