Seminars 

PGC x CHDC LinkedIn Workshop
The PGC with the Medicine Candidate HDR Committee (CHDC) is thrilled to welcome you to a LinkedIn workshop on the 3rd of May at 12:00-1:00pm for in person and virtual attendance. This event will be run by UNSW careers coach Sumaya Sava at Mathews Room 103.

LinkedIn is a professional social network which can be used for finding jobs and career development opportunities. Although LinkedIn is commonly used in industry, many academics use the platform to share and highlight their research.

This workshop will cover:

  • The value of LinkedIn for professional career development
  • Ways to effectively customize your LinkedIn profile
  • Highlight activities for building connections with other LinkedIn professionals.
