Course Description

Generative AI (GenAI) chatbots can support every stage of the job search, from identifying target roles to refining your resume and preparing for interviews. With well-crafted prompts, these tools can help you polish application materials, practice interviewing responses, and translate your experience into role-relevant language, tailoring your narrative to each application.

In this interactive workshop, you will learn to integrate GenAI into your job search using the Explore-Build-Connect-Refine framework, with hands-on prompting practice. Bring your laptop (free chatbot access is sufficient) and any materials you'd like to refine during the workshop. You will leave with a personalized prompt library, actionable next steps, and skills to use GenAI strategically throughout your job search.

"Your Future in Science" is a seminar series designed for graduate research assistants and postdoctoral research associates. Held in-person the 3rd Thursday of every month from 12-1 pm in COMRB, YFIS covers topics about career exploration and different career options, professional skills needed for career success, and preparing for the job search.
