Doctoral Career Services are created to strengthen the employability of doctoral researchers by helping them translate deep academic expertise into skills and a profile employers recognise and value. Through mentoring, specialised courses, guidance sessions and workshops, doctoral career services equips researchers with the career skills, confidence and industry connections to move beyond academia with a clear, compelling professional profile. The result is a stronger flow of doctoral talent into industry, and a clearer signal of Aalto's leadership in doctoral career development.
Have you ever wondered why your LinkedIn profile is not attracting recruiters, collaborators, or new opportunities? Are you unsure whether to share your publications, or how often you should post at all?
