SUMMARY: SCEC’s Office of Experiential Learning and Career Advancement (ELCA) is hosting its 3rd annual Transitions Program Breakfast Club meeting. Join fellow student and early-career peers and learn from senior SCEC scientists from a range of fields and sectors. The senior scientists will provide a short introduction and then answer questions about career pathways and opportunities over breakfast. The goal of these meetups is to provide a platform for early career attendees to connect with mentors for the purpose of discussing pathways in earthquake science careers. These networking opportunities are intended for anyone starting, pursuing, building, or transitioning into an earthquake science career.
Career building strategies - Developing Career Paths and Stages
This breakfast session will focus on discussing the diverse career paths and strategies. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask SCEC’s seasoned professionals about:
- The various phases of their career
- Strategies to navigate and climb the professional “ladder”
- Obstacles and challenges mentors have overcome in their career path
- Career changes...what to consider?
Space is limited!
