HeidiOne of the most critical communications exercises we all face at some point relates to our career transitions. We all know that the days of staying at one job for life are long gone. Studies show that the average professional changes jobs seven times over the course of their career. We need to have a communications plan as we think about career transitions. Dr. Heidi Scott Giusto is an expert in helping academics think about their job searches. On episode 53 she shares insights on how professors and practitioners alike should best approach new career opportunities.

Among the topics we address are:

– Common mistakes in cover letters and CVs
– The difference between a resume and CV
– Interviews Do’s and Don’ts
– The link between digital footprint and career opportunities for academics
– Networking and the job search

Resource mentioned during the interview
