During two evenings Maria has been to seminars about work/career, arranged by Naturvetarna (The Swedish Association of Scientists). Right now Maria has a job for two years, but what does she want with the rest of her life? (an unanswered question). It is never to early to start thinking about that.
The Tuesday seminars were of a more general character, including information from the consultant company Proffice Life Science. Other themes were 'How can you influence your salary' and 'Career directions and career cultures'.
During the second evening Maria went to a longer seminar about career planning. What to do when searching for a new job and how to start with your own career planning, were two questions discussed during the evening. Both theory and practical exercises were mixed. Some of the exercises included harder situations, mostly since you don't have much experience (being in an interview for example).
Tomorrow there will be a follow-up with 40 minutes of individual guidance.
It is really good to get some hints about what to do when trying to find a job.
