JOINAI, Imposter Syndrome, and the Entry Level Job Market: What Early Career Professionals Need to Know
Moderated by: Zara Manwaring, Portfolio Manager, Biochemical Society’s journals (Portland Press).
ECPC Q&A Facilitator: Amanda Sulicz, Manager, Research Integrity, IEEE
Artificial intelligence is evolving rapidly, and the constant conversation around it can leave early-career professionals feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or behind. This webinar aims to cut through the hype by demystifying how AI is actually being used today, how it is reshaping the labor market (especially entry‑level roles), and what this means for career development and job searching.
We’ll explore practical questions such as how to evaluate and sense‑check AI outputs when you’re new, how to write better prompts, and how to use AI tools responsibly to improve efficiency without over‑reliance. The session will also address the emotional side of AI adoption, imposter syndrome, burnout, and anxiety about career direction, and help participants identify useful, future‑ready skills that remain valuable in an AI‑shaped workplace.
