  • Applying for international academic positions can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re navigating different systems, expectations, and cultural norms.

These questions are especially relevant for Master’s students, PhDs, and early PostDocs preparing to take the next step in their academic careers. In this webinar, our invited speakers will share personal insights from both sides of the application process, as candidates and as reviewers.
