“How did you prepare for your job interview to convey the expertise you bring from STS?”
The reply to this question sparked my favorite moment: “Not at all, I only attended this Workshop a couple of year ago.”
The 3rd Early Career Workshop organized by STS Austria explored job opportunities for graduates in STS and was a resounding success. How can graduates apply academic knowledge? What non-academic career paths offer exciting fields of activity? And what does career development look like across various fields?
Four speakers from public administration, research, art, and industry shared their experience on job seeking, everyday work, use of STS knowledge, and work-life balance with over 30 participants attending both in-person and online. The workshop was an inspiring and engaging experience, offering new insights and networking opportunities. It highlighted the wide range of dynamic career trajectories available to STS graduates, sparking new possibilities and enthusiasm for the impact we can make also outside academia. We would like to thank all the speakers and participants!
