Figuring out what to do after getting the PhD degree is not an easy task. 🤯
Those thoughts are very often pushed aside as completing the PhD seems to be the most relevant for now. 🫸
All your time and energy likely go into its completing.
Knowing what you want in life can be really hard. Options are numerous and even whether to stay or leave academia might be neither obvious nor easy to decide.
To help you get some clarity regarding your career paths, I interviewed Matthew Betts. Matt helps PhDs navigate their career paths into and out of academia and share shares his insights on:
🖊 Translating your skills into industry jargon
⬆ Determining areas in which you might want to upskill
🧠 Helpful mindset shifts when transitioning into a new rol
🤔 How to apply for jobs that don't read like a 100% match
Thank you so much for listening, have a great week and don't forget to subscribe to not miss new episodes,
