What is CARaDOC ?
CARaDOC (Careers and Doctors) 2020 is an event, organised for PhD students, PhDs & Postdoctoral researchers of Université Paris-Saclay that aims to help young researchers to define their career path!
After last year’s successful event (J-RED 2019 with 300 participants and 25 companies) and considering the specific circumstances related to the COVID-19 crisis, we decided to have a virtual event on November 17 - 18, 2020.
For PhD Students, the time spent at CARaDOC can be bonified into up to 4 hours of ADUM non-scientific training hours.

Webinars and Round Tables
1
10:00 - 11:30
Webinar: How to get a job in the industry after your PhD
Are you considering a career outside academia and want to understand how to market your PhD to employers? However, the transition to other career sectors is not an easy ride. This workshop is designed to help you to understand why and where to focus your energy in order to accomplish your transition. You will learn how to build up your own toolkit to succeed at each stage of the application and how to become and then behave as a leading candidate.
2
13:00 - 14:30
Round Table: Experiences and advice on launching a startup.
Our speakers are investors, startupers, and professional coaches who will share their experiences. They will share with you all you need to know to follow your dreams of funding your own company. What are the risks, what are the benefits, who should be your partners, how to get funded.
3
15:00 - 16:30
Round Table: Gender equity in companies and public institutions.
Equity between men and women is not the most found word in both academics and the private sectors even in 2020. As this topic is indissociable of building a career anywhere and decisive for the world we are living in, we have invited the CNRS, Louvre Lens Vallée, Adoc, and some companies to come and share their assessment of the situation.
