His eyes were on a tenure-track position at a university in Chile where he could expand the research he began at EMBL, leading a group of his own. While he had clear goals, he still needed guidance on the best way to achieve them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And though Nadezda Volkova, a mathematician, completed her PhD in cancer genomics at EMBL\u2019s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), she had decided to move outside academia. In many ways, this job market was uncharted territory. Finding the way to best present herself and identifying appropriate jobs to apply for would be critical to her success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tobias and Nadezda ended up finding exactly the help they needed in the same place: the EMBL Fellows\u2019 Career Service \u2013 now celebrating its first year of supporting both PhD students and postdocs. Led by career advisors Rachel Coulthard-Graf and Patricia Cabezas, this service supports fledgling scientists in identifying the best career fit for them and provides the tools to make that road an easier one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Providing more support to EMBL fellows<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of EMBL\u2019s International Centre for Advanced Training, the programme offers services that range from personalised, individual career guidance sessions and job application materials checks to a variety of career workshops and events. Career guidance sessions offer a confidential space where fellows can explore their career trajectory, preferences, and concerns. Job application materials checks provide comprehensive feedback for refining cover letters and CVs for specific job applications. Together with the Postdoc Office, Rachel and Patricia also co-organise the EMBL Complementary Scientific Skills Programme, which offers trainings on non-technical skills required for a scientific career, such as scientific presentation skills and project management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe learned that the needs of PhD students are slightly different from those of postdocs,\u201d Rachel says. \u201cThe postdocs tend to focus specifically on continuing their research and whether to do it within academia or industry. PhD students, on the other hand, seem open to a lot more possibilities for what they might do with their science education.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The COVID effect<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting a new programme like the EMBL Fellows\u2019 Career Service is challenging at any time, but starting one and then recalibrating it for a pandemic presents new, unexpected considerations. For the EMBL Fellows\u2019 Career Service, it obviously shifted the focus from in-person encounters to maximising the service\u2019s online space. The challenge was to keep the service feeling personalised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn some ways COVID had a positive impact,\u201d Patricia says. \u201cBeforehand, we had the challenge of how to equally serve all six EMBL sites. Then COVID forced us online, where we could offer regular workshops to serve fellows from all six sites at once, suiting their schedules rather than waiting until the service offered one at their site.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the beginning of the COVID crisis, the EMBL Fellows\u2019 Career Service has held nine fully-booked online career workshops on three different topics. One workshop explored how to find the right postdoctoral position and laboratory setting, with advice on what to ask prospective group leaders and how to prepare cover letters. The other two workshops focused on how to prepare job application materials and face job interviews for the non-academic job market. The EMBL Complementary Scientific Skills Programme has also offered six other online workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, EMBL\u2019s annual Career Day turned into an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.embl.org\/careerday\">online webinar series.<\/a> Despite the change in format, the event attracted at least 300 participants to the webinars, including PhD students and postdocs from outside EMBL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The online format does bring certain challenges, such as the difficulty of interpreting participants\u2019 body language and non-verbal cues during career guidance sessions. \u201cAnd while we\u2019ve continued individual counselling online, some of the tools we developed to aid discussion on particular topics in in-person meetings don\u2019t work as well in a video call,\u201d says Rachel. \u201cIt\u2019s also harder to provide comfort online when someone is stressed,\u201d Patricia adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking back, however, Patricia and Rachel view their first year as one that accelerated their approach for the Career Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe had plans to expand our reach in the coming years through virtual outreach,\u201d Patricia says. \u201cCOVID has forced us to do that now, and our plan is to get even better.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The proof is in the testimonials<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This year has been an important one, as a result of COVID and an unusual job market, so use of the service and survey results have provided important insights. Approximately 20% of fellows have attended individual career guidance sessions, with more than 30% returning for follow-up appointments. A survey of participants showed that 100% would recommend the service to a colleague.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe consultation I had was super helpful because it taught me what language and forms to use to describe my experiences and achievements, and what key phrases a recruiter would look for,\u201d Nadezda says. \u201cWe initially thought that a position I brought as an example was too high for my experience level, but after two rounds of tailoring my CV I got the courage to apply, and then successfully interviewed and received an offer \u2013 a Senior Cancer Analyst position at Genomics England \u2013 the position I\u2019m in now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tobias, despite heading in a different career direction, shares similar satisfaction. \u201cI was very clear about where I wanted to go and what I wanted to do,\u201d he says of his assistant professor position, in which he heads up his own lab at Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Chile. \u201cA grant-writing workshop from the EMBL Complementary Scientific Skills courses, and several others, plus one-on-one guidance were invaluable, and helped me get familiar with non-technical skills that are all required for the application, as well as to fill out the role I\u2019m now stepping into.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patricia and Rachel say these reactions are fairly typical. As they look to the future, they\u2019re also looking back at participant feedback. \u201cWe\u2019re further ahead in some ways than we expected,\u201d Patricia says. \u201cAt this point, we assess what is working, what participants are still seeking, and where we can help provide further information and support.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the EMBL
