One week before this workshop participants will need to submit the following:

• A brief outline of their research area along with the name of their academic department
• A copy of their current CV (don’t worry if this is not up to date as they will have time to work on it)

And

• Details of a job description they are replying to (if relevant) or types of jobs they hope to apply for …websites such as www.euraxess.ec.europa.eu; www.heanet.ie/vacancies; www.universityvacancies.com, www.jobs.ac.uk  or www.indeed.ie might be useful for those who do not yet have a specific role in mind.
