Finding that “just right” person for a role can take time, patience and a lot of work. If you are responsible for building a team or will be soon, join us for this Career Conversation, “Finding the Right Fit: Recruiting Post Docs and Students.” During this interactive discussion, our panelists who come from different backgrounds and disciplines in gerontology, will share what they look for in candidates and how they ultimately determine who to admit or hire, including strategies and tools to enhance the recruitment process and assess candidates. Whether you are new to the recruiting process, experienced in hiring graduate students or postdocs, or a trainee looking to learn more about the recruitment and hiring, this conversation is for you!  Time will be provided for questions from the audience.

This program is sponsored by the GSA Career Conversations Workgroup.
