2015 PIMS-Math Job Forum for Postdoctoral Fellows and Graduate Students
Topic
The PIMS-Math Job Forum is an annual Forum to help graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in the Mathematics Department with their job searches. The session is divided in two parts: short presentations from our panel followed by a discussion.
Learn the secrets of writing an effective research statement, developing an outstanding CV, and giving a winning job talk. We will address questions like: Who do I ask for recommendation letters? What kind of jobs should I apply to? What can I do to maximize my chances of success?
Lunch will be provided for all registrants (please see below for the registration process).
Slides from this event are available in mathtube.org
