Most master’s students start their job search the same way: by submitting resumes to online job postings. It’s an understandable first step — but not the most effective one.
In 2025, LinkedIn processed an average of 11,000 applications per minute. With so many job seekers competing for the same positions, submitting resumes to online job postings is not enough, and this approach often leads to frustration and disappointment for master’s students with limited work experience.
A more effective job search strategy exists — and it starts long before you submit a single resume.
Join Beyond Graduate School for this special webinar series where you’ll learn strategies for an effective job search, what you need to do before you begin applying for jobs, and what steps to take when you are ready to apply. By the end of this series, you’ll have a clear plan for what you can do right now to prepare for your job search after graduation.
This special webinar series is designed for master’s students from all academic backgrounds:
- September 14: 3 mistakes master’s students must avoid in their job search
