It contains a wealth of information and resources specifically targeted at research bioscientists, with practical strategies to enhance career success in an increasingly competitive job market. Advice on how to write a winning CV together with examples adapted for different jobs is presented, as well as practical exercises to assist with skills analysis and decision making. Profiles of PhD-qualified bioscienstists in a range of professions including academic research, industry, science communication, management and consultancy provide valuable insights into how others have managed their careers, and tactics such as networking and using social media demonstrate how new opportunities can be discovered. The content of this book is aimed primarily at research bioscientists, however much of the advice and information will be a useful reference for other students and researchers looking for an effective career planning strategy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA companion website with additional resources is available at \u003cb\u003ewww.wiley.com\/go\/blackford\/careerplanning\u003c\/b\u003e and you can visit Sarah Blackford's blog at \u003cb\u003ewww.biosciencecareers.org\u003c\/b\u003e for more information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSarah Blackford\u003c\/b\u003e is the Head of Education and Public Affairs of a large international bioscience learned society.
