OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Moving on from Academia (Research Staff Only)
Are you interested in alternatives to the academic career path? If you’re exploring (or decided on) a career outside academia, but you need some pointers on how to take your plan forward, this workshop will get you started.
During the session we will look at tools and strategies for identifying attractive roles and understanding what a job really entails, whilst also considering the importance of knowing your own skill set and preferred parameters and using that knowledge to shape your job search.
Workshop objectives:
Identify appropriate tools to clarify your personal skill set and work preferences
Learn about employers’ views on researchers, and key skills sought by typical sectors of interest
Discover strategies for investigating career options in a structured way
Understand common patterns of transition from academia, and your own rationale for making the move.
To get the most out of this workshop:
We strongly encourage you to look at the ‘Planning and guidance for Research Students and Staff’ pages of our website before you attend.
All research staff welcome.
