Seminar series 'Outside of Academia'

Title: Job Interview Workshop

Speaker: Yunchen Sun (Grow Internationals)

Are you curious about the job interview process and how to handle it? Then, join the workshop by Yunchen Sun from Grow Internationals.

In this workshop, we will cover an overview of the interview process and strategies for managing it, including salary negotiation. We’ll also look at how to effectively communicate transferable skills as part of personal branding, particularly for academics transitioning to industry. In addition, we’ll have a practical session on how to prepare for common (e.g. tell me about yourself), uncommon (e.g. If you would be a brick in the wall, what kind of brick would you be?), and inappropriate (e.g. do you plan to have a family within the next 5 years?) interview questions.

As there are limited spots, please register at the latest on 14.04.2025 using the following link:
