Workshop overview

This session provides the opportunity to hear from successful PGR international graduates who have used their PhD to break into academic and non-academic careers in the UK and overseas. These graduates will share their personal journeys, including how they navigated the UK job market and overcame potential challenges such as cultural, language, or dialect barriers when securing their first post-PhD role. They will also reflect on how their doctoral experience contributed to their career development and offer key advice for current researchers. There will also be the opportunity to ask them any burning questions you may have.

This session will be presented by David Gee, creator of GradLink, the award-winning careers site for international students. David will talk through how international PhD students and graduates can gain the most from this free specialist service.
