Career and Talent Management

Individual career services are available on a limited basis for benefits-eligible employees who are planning to develop in their careers at MIT.

The career coaching process begins with an overall exploration of development needs and career questions. It continues with a plan for accomplishing short- and long-term goals. Depending on need, the coaching can focus on any of the following development topics:

• Assessing skills, interests, and values
• Exploring new roles and careers at MIT
• Researching possibilities at MIT through informational interviewing
• Creating a development plan for your current position
• Preparing for a development discussion with your manager
• Building a professional network
• Discussing options for continuing education
• Developing strategies to manage common career stage transitions at early career, mid-career, or late career/retirement
