Abstract:
:Securing a first job following training is an exciting and daunting task. Little formal guidance is available and trainees often find themselves confused, uncertain, and overwhelmed. This article is designed to provide a basic framework for fellows and new graduates to search for positions, apply, interview, and negotiate. The article focuses on securing an academic position; however, much of the advice is generalizable to a private-sector position. A short case example will be used to illustrate key points.
