What is the ABG?
Since its foundation in 1980, the Association Bernard Gregory has been working as a non-profit organization to bring together both academic and business spheres by supporting the professional mobility of new and recent PhDs into the business world.
Main activities
¯ Job search: the ABG publishes job opportunities specifically aiming at young PhDs.
¯ Profile search: the ABG runs an online resume databank that employers can search for profiles of young PhDs.
¯ Career advice: the ABG relies on a network of 300 correspondents in universities and research centers in France, in several European countries as well as in the USA and in Japan. They provide individual support to new PhDs in structuring their career plans, in writing a CV aimed at the non-academic sector, and they follow them through to their recruitment.
