Job application
Applying for a job is a marketing process. For students with research qualifications, one of the main ingredients for success will be understanding and marketing the transferable skills you have developed. Most researchers will feel confident and clear about skills related to their specific area of research which can set them apart from other applicants in terms of their expertise. The area which requires a bit more thought is identifying the broader skills in areas such as communication, organisation and team work. These will all be factors which successful researchers will have mastered through their studies.
