Interactive Workshop for postdocs and researchers on how to write competitive CVs | UiB Ferd Career Center for Early Stage Researchers | UiB

The way researchers are evaluated is changing. Some funders now use ‘narrative’ CV formats and focus on wider experiences than just publication metrics. This interactive workshop will look at how to prepare academic CVs, focussing on the ingredients a researcher’s career needs to have. We will look at building in opportunities and using these strategically (and time efficiently) to create a competitive CV for fellowships, grants and promotions.

You will be working with others to explore this topic using examples from a variety of funders. Please come prepared to take notes (digitally or on paper) and bring a paper copy of your existing CV

Register before October 5th here: CV Building for Postdocs and Researchers (uib.no)
07.10.2022 – 09.00–11.30, Studentsenteret, seminar room E.

This seminar will demonstrate how to use ORCID and other researcher profiles to showcase your work.
Having a researcher profile is a great way to showcase contributions to your field and open science engagement. Author IDs, which ensure your works are correctly attributed, are also allocated by some services.

However, there are many services to choose from, with various features and audiences, and it can be difficult to navigate.
This seminar will:
– Give an introduction to the landscape of researcher profile services and advice about what to choose
– Demonstrate the main features in ORCID, an author ID system used by many journals and funding agencies to identify authors. This will include how to add your works quickly using automatic import functions.
– Talk about how to showcase various open science outputs such as publications, conference contributions, peer-reviews, preprints, open datasets and code.
– How features compare to Publons and Google Scholar profiles
– How to link out to other profiles, such as social media
