Speed Mentoring is a fun, fast-paced event in which PDFs will have the opportunity to interact with as many expert mentors as possible. Mentors from all areas of research and training will be participating, to offer brief one-on-one advice to postdocs, ten minutes at a time. With registration, the PDFO will organise the time into ten minute increments, ideally with a chance for each PDF to meet with their choice of mentor. These questions can be regarding academic or industry career topics such as:
Job search strategies
Grant writing
Interview process
Funding issues
Knowing Where You Are Going
Tenure
Skill Development
Collegiality and Independence
Life Balance
Gender Differences
Peculiarities Unique to Arts, Science and Medicine
