What is the job market like for a creativity researcher? How should you market yourself? How many interviews do you need to go on? What are the opportunities for creativity research in academic vs. in industry? In this session, a panel of early-career researchers who have landed in a variety of roles in academia, industry, and post-doctoral training will discuss their experiences navigating the job market in creativity. This session is aimed at current students, trainees, and other early career researchers, or anyone who advises, trains, or is looking to hire them!
