Hi all! I’m new to this app. I’m a graduate student in the second year of my graduate program in IO Psychology. Looking toward graduation, I’m starting to dip my toes in to test the job market. I’m in Missouri. Could you offer any tips or suggestions for new grads?

Know what area of I/O you want to focus on. There is so much different work in I/O, don’t try to be an expert at everything. Or think you are actually applying for jobs if you are just applying for any jobs that says MAIOP. Pick a lane and stick to it.

Korn Ferry is hiring assessment and succession planning project managers and survey work is always a good place to start. Project management work at any firm that specializes in I/o work is also a good start. These firms will seem more boutique than the ones you hear talked about in the main bowl. Stay away from any big 4 consulting. They aren’t our kind of people or do our kind of work

This was so helpful to me too, I am actually just graduating psychology bachelors and want to go into IO masters, and was thinking I should put all energy to get into big consulting company for I O jobs after I O masters (which I will start in 2 years) !What job types would you say prepare you the best for I O jobs in the future?
