Description
Data for several countries show an increase in unemployment among early career researchers as the market fails to absorb increasing numbers of doctorate holders. Researchers need to prepare for the increased career competitiveness inside and outside academia by acquiring a diverse set of transferable skills, i.e. skills and competences are those that are not only tied to a specific area but are general and can be used in a number of areas.
In September ESOF2020 session "Who is responsible for transferable skills and how can RRI and Open Science help" addressed the issue of soft-skills training in the digital era.
