Overqualified or Underqualified? Which Is It and What to Do About It 

Join us for a Beyond the Professoriate Live Webinar Watch Party on November 5 at noon at UU-133A. This session will breakdown the overqualified vs. underqualified conundrum. Learn concrete strategies for overcoming this obstacle in your job search and how to communicate your value to employers.

This webinar is uniquely designed for doctoral students, PhDs, and postdocs from all academic disciplines who are wondering:

How should I describe my skills and experience to nonacademic employers?
How do I communicate the value I bring to nonacademic positions?
How can I prove I’m a qualified candidate when I do not have direct industry experience?

We will hold a watch party at UU-133A and a discuss will follow after the webinar. However, you can also attend the Zoom webinar directly on Beyond the Professoriate. The webinar will be recorded, however advanced registration is required. Register at:
