LEARN HOW ALMA.ME CAN SUPPORT YOUR STUDENTS IN THEIR NON-ACADEMIC JOB SEARCH

We support PhD graduates in their job search following their PhD studies and postdoctoral work, helping them to get hired more efficiently.

Get Started

The Problem

Over 70% of PhDs will eventually leave academia and they need help with the transition. Career services often do not have deep insight into the real world of industry, leaving PhDs pursuing non-academic careers without information that is critical to their transition.

General career transition programs often cater to broad business audiences, not accounting for the unique needs of academics transitioning to industry.

Courses that are exclusively tailored for PhDs often lack deep industry awareness of how and when to apply different concepts to different industry contexts.

Many existing programs don't offer an array in-depth insight into the proper etiquette and communication that is effective with industry audiences.

The Solution

An affordable, self-paced online course to help a large volume of PhDs and PostDocs transition smoothly into the labor market. Developed by co-founders Elena Hoffer, a PhD graduate from Karolinska Institutet, and Angela Priest, an industry executive with 20 years of hiring experience.
