Beyond the Job Board: Where to Find the Hidden Job Market
Date: June 6, 2025
Time: 9:30 am until 10:30 am
Location: Online Via Handshake
Nearly 70% of companies hire through employee referrals. These job openings may not be posted online and employers choose not to advertise them publicly. Instead, they approach employees and internal networks as trusted sources to help fill open positions.
As a job seeker, you need to find a way to break into this “hidden” job market. It is one of the most effective ways to get hired quickly, make a career transition, or land your first professional job.
In this workshop, you’ll learn how to take advantage of the hidden job market and be the first to learn about new opportunities.
This virtual workshop is designed for PhDs and postdocs from all academic disciplines who are wondering:
- What is the hidden job market?
- What is the most effective way to access it?
- How should I approach my job search to ensure I’m aware of all the opportunities open to me?
