Postdocs

Pitt Commons is an online platform designed exclusively for members of the Pitt community. The platform allows students, faculty, staff, alumni, postdocs, and friends of the University of Pittsburgh to establish networking and mentoring relationships that are meaningful and specific to their unique interests and professional goals.

Join our community of past and current University of Pittsburgh trainees to network and share information regarding postdoc positions, career development programs, employment opportunities, news, announcements, and more! 
 

With a community of more than 330,000, Ask Pitt Alumni will connect you with the best alum who can help you with advice and introductions. Submit a question and you will be matched with someone who can best provide an answer to it. This free service is open to postdocs and graduate students at the University. 

Whether you’ve already joined the Pitt community or you’re considering a move here, this guide will help you to get the most out of the city. 

The Office of International Services (OIS) is the University’s immigration specialist, serving all campuses and the 6000 international students, scholars, staff, and faculty who call Pitt their academic home. Our chief job is to make sure that immigration issues are handled smoothly, quickly and correctly.

Another important function of OIS is to welcome you to campus! You will learn about the special orientation process for international students, scholars, staff, and faculty in My OIS, your online service center for accessing all OIS services and immigration needs.

When preparing for a job interview, it's not enough to only read advice - you need to put that advice into practice! That's why Big Interview isn't just a training course. You'll also get hands-on practice with mock interviews tailored to your specific industry, job and experience level. All Pitt users have access to this resource for free. 

A collection of other resources is available to you at postdoc.pitt.edu, with new resources being added regularly.
