El Salvador: Looking to nuclear
In 2022, El Salvador’s leadership decided to expand its modest, mostly hydro- and geothermal-based electricity system, which is supported by expensive imported natural gas and diesel generation. They chose to use advanced nuclear reactors, preferably fueled by thorium-based fuels, to power their civilian efforts. The choice of thorium was made to inform the world that the reactor program was for civilian purposes only, and so they chose a fuel that was plentiful, easy to source and work with, and not a proliferation risk.

Congratulations, you've been invited to interview for your dream job. How do you navigate the range of interviews--behavioral and technical, virtual or in-person, and stick the landing? An interview is the first chance for a hiring team to put a voice or a face to your application. It's also your chance to figure out if this team is a good fit for you. In this workshop, representatives from industry, government, and academia will share their experiences on both the applicant and hiring sides. Participants will then break out into smaller teams for further discussion, group interview practice and feedback.
