Translate your PhD to Industry language with Dr. ALEENA BABY

Your PhD gave you the skills. This workshop gives you the vocabulary to prove it.

Hiring managers spend 7 seconds reading your CV. If those 7 seconds contain academic language, you are invisible. "Investigated spectral classification using deep learning" gets no interviews. "Built an automated classification pipeline, reducing processing time by 70%" gets three.

This is a hands-on working session. You do not only watch slides. You rewrite your own work, practice it out loud, and pressure-test it in live role-play scenarios.

What you leave with:

• A completed Translation Worksheet converting your PhD projects into industry language
• A personal Industry Map linking your research domain to target sectors and companies
• A 2-minute industry pitch, practiced and peer-reviewed by the group
• Experience handling real recruiter pressure in 4 role-play scenarios (salary negotiation, "tell me about yourself," "explain your PhD," and "what is your weakness")

Who this is for:

• PhD candidates and postdocs transitioning to industry in Germany and Europe
• Researchers who know their skills are strong but struggle to describe them in language that hiring managers understand
• Anyone who has been applying without getting interviews and suspects the problem is positioning, not qualifications

What this is not:

• A lecture. You will be working, writing, and speaking for 2 hours.
• Generic career advice. Every exercise uses YOUR actual PhD work.

Hosted by Dr. Aleena Baby, PhD in Computational Astrophysics, founder of Academia to Industry. Helped 100+ researchers transition from academia to industry roles in Germany and Europe.
